For the second straight season, the Raptors 905 will host the NBA G-League Showcase, a four-day, 26-game extravaganza. The event runs from January 10th to the 13th, and it’ll include all 26 G-League teams. Each squad will play two regular season games and get to show off for the army of scouts who will presumably also descend on Mississauga. With up to seven games running per day on two courts at the Hershey Centre, it’ll be a lot of basketball to take in.
Here are some thrilled quotes from the Raptors and MLSE brass from the official press release:
“We’re thrilled to work in partnership with Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment and Raptors 905 to bring the NBA G League Showcase back to Mississauga,” said NBA G League President Malcolm Turner.
