At the 2017 Project Play Summit, industry leaders in youth sports discuss the wild west culture of grassroots basketball, the NBA’s new guidelines for kids, and the impact that adoption could have on youth sports broadly. Who will end owning the culture of summer hoops, the LaVar Balls of the world or the NBA and USA Basketball? Moderating the session is Karen Crouse, New York Times Sports Reporter. Panelists are Greg Kristof, CEO, Zero Gravity Basketball; Chiney Ogwumike, WNBA player; David Krichavsky, Vice President of Youth Basketball Development, NBA; Steve Keener, President/CEO, Little League International.
