“Sports Business Classroom, specifically the Salary Cap Management/Executive Session track helped prepare me for my journey through an NBA G League Front Office and equipped me with the necessary knowledge to be successful.”

“I attended Sports Business Classroom as a star-struck, 19-year-old kid. It sounds cliché, but the program truly did change my outlook on basketball.

Sports Business Classroom gives you the exposure, curriculum, and connections to better understand what working in basketball truly entails and the work you need to put in to “make it” in the league.”

“Sports Business Classroom was an incredible experience.

Though we were unable to meet in person, the curriculum, the varying perspectives from industry experts, and SBC network was second to none.

I strongly recommend the program for anyone looking to build a network of like-minded people trying to make a living within hoops.

I can’t wait to grow and continue to cross paths with the SBC team and classmates for years to come!”

One of the best decisions I’ve ever made!”

“SBC presented me with an opportunity for which I’ll be forever grateful and helped me elevate myself in the industry to heights that didn’t seem possible at 21-years-old. 

 

I networked with world-class executives, produced pregame and postgame shows in a state-of-the-art studio, and accepted a position at the “World’s Most Famous Arena.” SBC allowed me to interact with the very best of Generation Z and make lifelong friendships in the process.

 

Without question, SBC is an absolute must for anyone looking for an opportunity to work in sports.”

“ I’ve been fortunate enough to be a part of SBC since it’s inception.

It’s an amazing opportunity for people to get great first-hand experience in basketball, learn from some of the top people in their fields and just soak in being in being around all of the basketball activities in Vegas.

When I look for hard-working individuals who want to work in basketball and go the extra mile in doing so, SBC is the perfect place to find that.”

– Dennis Rogers
Los Angeles Clippers, Director of Communications

“Sports Business Classroom is geared towards anyone who’s trying to break into the business of basketball and really doesn’t matter where you are in your career.

We think that it can be really helpful both in terms of connections that you can make, the lessons you can learn from just our incredible list of speakers that we have, our incredible list of guests.

The contacts that you can make, the access that you have to meet people in the business of basketball- it’s really fantastic for someone who’s at any stage of their career development.”

– Nate Duncan

“SBC is a factory there is a lot of great people, a lot of great talent that comes out of there into the NBA. It’s because we get exposed to each other and we get the chance to work on these workshops together.”

– Tommy Sheppard
Former General Manager with Washington Wizards

I think about when I was younger and really trying to find my way in this business it would’ve been nice to have a resource like SBC.

Where you are getting advice from real mentors who have experience and have been around the game for a while.”
