Brazil’s NBB slam-dunks extensions with sponsors

Brazilian airline Avianca Brasil and domestic pay-television operator Sky have agreed deals with the country’s National Basketball League (LNB), to continue their sponsorships of the top-tier NBB club competition.

Both of the extended deals will cover the 2016-17 season.

Avianca Brasil will retain its role as the official airline of the competition, as well as continue to carry NBB players and officials to and from games across the country.

The airline will also benefit from branding placement during all league matches and the end-of-season All-Star Game, as well as on the NBB website and on all official LNB communications material.

Sky, which broadcasts coverage of the NBB in Brazil, will also receive branding placement during games and on social media platforms.
