Music artists to perform at NBL Cup

Local talent will soundtrack the inaugural NBL Cup, a "first of its kind competition" in Melbourne played within the regular season.

Confirmed to perform during the competition, as programed by UNIFIED Music Group, Modern Day Entertainment and Red Hill Entertainment, is Steve Cousins, Matilda Pearl, Jordan Astra, Jordan Dennis, Jaycee, YNG Martyr and Sophiya.

“Bringing music to the NBL has been a dream for years and to now be doing it with Julian and our friends at Modern Day Entertainment we are over the moon,” UNIFIED Music Group CEO and Founder Jaddan Comerford said.

“Music and basketball has always been closely linked and we are thrilled to be able to put up and coming Australian music in front of basketball fans. This is just the beginning and we are grateful to the NBL for the opportunity they are giving to the Australian music industry.”

More importantly, tickets are $10 even for gold tickets. I'd listen to whatever music I have to to watch 2 NBL games in good seats at that price.

How pathetically sad, luckily LK arranged for a Victorian state government handout. At least that's one positive - the NBL are finally tapping into the gravy train like most other pro sports have always done.

F me there are some negative posters goin round, bagging the NBL and NBL Cup.

If I was able to be in Melbourne to watch a couple of games for $10 would be very happy about it.

I have long term concerns re the sustainability of the NBL if Larry takes off but also believe if he wasn't about the league would be close to closing down. It is now damn strong and time to enjoy.

My major concern is the lack of investment in local both junior and senior basketball.

The sport is booming but down here in Tasmania and I am sure it is the case in other places there are not enough courts for to keep up with growth of basketball.

The top end might be going very well need investment in grass roots basketball.

4 new courts at the DEC Scout and a proposal to build a new 5000 seat basketball stadium in Launceston. Going well,

4 new courts at the DEC will not touch the sides, will also be used by Jackjumpers as training facility.

Moonah, Rosny, Warrane all beyond useby date - leak when it rains.

Courts needed in Hobart and on Eastern Shore

CAM's / clubs currently train at schools without proper rings etc

Yep it is improvement but there are definitely more courts needed than just the DEC.....have been for over a decade.

Anon #199 yes you are right - hence the need for more courts with more demand.
