THE NBL has confirmed that some AFL clubs are keen on creating their own basketball team to be part of the league’s expansion, with two Melbourne-based AFL clubs reportedly the front-runners.
NBL owner Larry Kestelman wants to expand the league by up to four teams in the coming years. And the league is keen for some AFL clubs to add basketball departments so they can also run NBL teams in the coming years.
Fox Footy and Fox Sports NBL commentator Dwayne Russell reported on Sportsday radio on Monday night that two Melbourne-based AFL clubs were the front-runners to enter teams into the soon-to-be-expanded NBL.
Russell said Collingwood, which already has both a netball team and AFLW side, had shown interest in owning a basketball team as the NBL seeks a second Melbourne-based franchise to enter the competition.
Fremantle also looms as a viable option to be a second WA-based NBL team off the back of the Perth Wildcats’ success, which has seen them attract over 15,000 fans to most home games so far this season.
