Making the Move: How the Nets will bring basketball back to the Island
Long Island NetsAlton Byrd loves to tick off the names of San Antonio Spurs players who spent time in the D-League.
“...Patty Mills, played in the D-League. Danny Green, played in the D-League. Davis Bertans, played in the D-League...
“Nine players on the Spurs roster played in the D-League. That's nine out of 15!” He adds with emphasis.
Byrd, the Vice President for Business Operations at the Long Island Nets, is selling the NBA’s minor league. It's his job and it's a big one. His team is moving from temporary quarters at Barclays Center, where few games were open to the public, to the newly renovated Nassau Coliseum or as its officially known, NYCB Live.
