How the Perception of the G League Has Changed Amongst the Players as Being Part of the Process
Alex Squadron, SLAM
In 2012-13, there were 186 total assignments (58 players) from the NBA to the D-League. As of this writing, there have been 540 assignments (92 players) to the G League this season. For most emerging talents, especially those with limited or no college experience, the G League is now perceived as an inevitable—and valuable—destination. A place to keep maturing and progressing.
An opportunity, rather than a demotion.
