End of the Road: G League Ignite Program Discontinued After 4 Years

The G League Ignite program disappears. This will be the last season in which the initiative undertaken by the G League is active so that some talented young players could have their first professional experience before making the leap to the NBA.

The initiative, which celebrates 4 years of existence this season and will remain there, is structured through the creation of a team based in California that plays outside the traditional G League competition and whose structure allows players to have salaries up to a maximum of $500,000 annually.

As explained by the president of the G League, the former NBA player Shareef Abdur-Rahimthe modifications promoted by the university league (NCAA) made the G League Ignite unnecessary, modifications related to the current capacity so that university players could receive some type of income, leaving aside the one hundred percent amateurism of the NCAA.

This season players like Matas Buzelis, Ron Holland or Spanish Be Almansa.

In their years of development, players such as Jonathan Kuminga, Jalen Green, Dyson Daniels o Scoot Henderson.
