Playmaker will work with the growing social broadcasting platform to deliver free, uninterrupted coverage of one of the most highly acclaimed and highly competitive pro-am basketball leagues. This season, the Miami Pro League has featured some of the best talents in the Association with NBA All-Stars Bam Adebayo (Miami Heat), Donovan Mitchell (Utah Jazz), and Darius Garland (Cleveland Cavaliers), and rising talents like Marvin Bagley III (Detroit Pistons), Derrick Jones, Jr. (Chicago Bulls), Obi Toppin (New York Knicks), and Haywood Highsmith (Miami Heat).
