NBAPA Opens New One-Stop-Shop Performance Center
When the basketball world converged on Los Angeles for NBA All-Star Weekend in February, Stephen Curry, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Kyrie Irving were among a group of 35 players who participated in a brainstorming session about the possibility of opening a players-only training facility in the city.
For years, hundreds of NBA players have trained in Los Angeles during the offseason. While the Southern California sunshine and lifestyle were appealing, players were forced to crisscross the city and its sprawling suburbs in search of available court time and weight training facilities to prepare for the upcoming season.
The players, who were accustomed to using all-in-one training centers during the season, concluded that a centralized hub in Los Angeles could foster higher-level scrimmages and reduce some of the logistical headaches.
