Celebrating Black History: Dallas Mavs host Black to Esports community event

Each February, the Dallas Mavericks join other NBA and NBA2K teams nationwide to celebrate Black History Month as the league supports the ongoing pursuit of racial justice, equality, equity, and inclusion in the workplace and community.

The Black to Esports event is an extension of the franchise’s commitment to elevating the experiences and perspectives of Black players, gamers, coaches, employees and the greater community.

The panel featured Black male and female esports influencers, content creators, athletes and youth community advocates who discussed the importance of representation for men and women of color in esports and highlighted other career opportunities in sports for the students.
