The NBA's Summer Fling
Summer League is a Las Vegas basketball bacchanal. For years, it was a niche convention for NBA insiders, and the fringe playing for a way in. After ratings and attendance jumps, it's the NBA's breakout star. Its pull into mainstream has helped turn the league into a nearly year-round sport.
