NBA Development League All-Star Game
The NBA D-League All-Star Game was an annual exhibition basketball game held by the NBA Development League (D-League).

List Of NBA Development League Champions
__NOTOC__ The NBA G League (previously known as the National Basketball Development League (NBDL) from 2001 to 2005 and the National Basketball Association Development League (NBA D-League) from 2005 to 2017) Finals is the championship game or series for the NBA G League and the conclusion of the league's postseason. Since the league's inception in 2001–02, a variety of formats has been used to determine the champion. From the inaugural postseason in 2002 through 2006, the four teams with the best records advanced to the postseason because there were no division or conference splits to divide the eight teams. The first two seasons, both semi-finals and the Finals series were in a best-of-three format, whereby a team must win two of the three games to advance or win the championship. Then, between 2004 and 2007, the playoffs used a single-elimination tournament among the four teams, with two semi-final games and one winner-takes-all championship match. In 2007, the league had ex ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
