NBA HBCU Fellowship

The NBA HBCU Fellowship Program, aims to provide career development opportunities in the business of basketball for undergraduate and graduate students from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Fellows are selected by NBA teams and the league office to work within a variety of departments, including ticket sales, corporate partnerships, IT, social responsibility, and marketing.

To tip off the 3rd year of the program, the 2024 cohort of HBCU Fellows were welcomed with a three-day orientation from May 22nd-24th at the NBA offices. With the support of our partners, Children’s Defense Fund and Fearless Dialogues, Fellows learned about the business of basketball, engaged in career development and leadership opportunities, and connected with NBA executives.

The Fellowship is a paid 10-week summer internship program and will run from June 3 – August 9, 2024.
