The 2020 Sal’s NBL Showdown

Against all odds, the 2020 Sal’s NBL Showdown was bold, innovative and unique. Possibly the world’s first sports ‘hub’ during COVID-19, the Showdown put 200 athletes, officials and administrators back into work. Capturing the nation’s imagination, early headlines were made with the NBL’s first-ever player draft. Not only were existing commercial agreements secured, but further partners were signed. Every game was broadcast live across the world to fans starved of live sport. A ground-breaking ESPN deal saw Kiwi basketball televised daily throughout the United States. Thanks to those six weeks, teams, players and everyone else involved in those 56 games, the NBL Showdown overcame the very real possibility of not seeing a season and being set back years. In the end, the Showdown was a major success.
