“FloSports is excited to extend our partnership with the Nike EYBL summer series supporting both the elite youth boys (U17 and E16) and girls divisions,” FloSports SVP Global Rights Acquisition and Subscription Phil Wendler said. “Established as the top grassroots summer series, the EYBL, along with FloHoops’ year-round prep and grassroots programming, makes FloHoops the No. 1 platform to watch the nation’s future NCAA and NBA stars live from anywhere in the world.” 

Nike’s Elite Youth Basketball Director Carlton DeBose said: “EYBL is one of the largest and most established summer basketball programs, and our fans expect and deserve in-depth and comprehensive coverage to follow their favorite players. FloHoops’ commitment to providing this type of content and coverage made it a natural choice to partner again, and we’re looking forward to working with the FloSports team throughout the 2018 EYBL season.”

Alums of the EYBL include some of the top NBA players in the world, including New Orleans Pelicans forward Anthony Davis (MeanStreets), Philadelphia Sixers guard Ben Simmons (E1T1), and Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (Alabama Challenge). In addition to the NBA, 83 Nike EYBL alumni participated in the 2018 NCAA Sweet 16.

WNBA stars such as Atlanta Dream guard Tiffany Hayes (Essence), Washington Mystics guard Kristi Toliver (Fairfax Stars), and Atlanta Dream forward-center Elizabeth Williams (Boo Williams) are also all GEYBL alumni.
