Delaware 87ers

Description

• The NBA Development League, founded in 2001, is the NBA's official minor league and featured 16 teams this past season all with direct affiliation to NBA franchises. In addition to players, the NBA D-League helps the NBA develop coaches, referees and front office staff. The NBA D-League season is comprised of 50 regular season games, along with a postseason, and runs from November through April.The Delaware 87ers were relocated to America's first state in 2013 and named to commemorate the year in which Delaware ratified the U.S. Constitution, 1787. The team will be known as the Delaware 87ers, and will be nicknamed the Sevens. The Sevens are the NBADL affiliate of the NBA Philadelphia 76ers, and are owned by the Sixers. The 87ers will play at the University of Delaware's Bob Carpenter Center in Newark, Del. During the 2013-14 NBA D-League season, which runs from November through April.The team name 87ers was selected in recognition of Delaware's place in United States history, as it was the first state to ratify the U.S. Constitution on December 7, 1787. The 87ers name also is immediately evocative of the parent 76ers, a name similarly derived from Philadelphia's place in U.S. history with the Declaration of Independence being signed there in 1776.The team website, Sevens.com, is live, as are social media pages on Twitter (@Sevens), Facebook (Delaware 87ers), Instagram (@delaware87ers), YouTube (Delaware 87ers) and Google+ (Delaware 87ers).
