The NFL season coming to an end does not mean an end to football, the AAF is here to fill that void. We pick AAF teams to follow through their season, and we are very excited to watch this league as it progresses. The  Basketball Africa League or BAL is another new league poised to launch in January 2020. This is a very exciting opportunity for the NBA and basketball as a sport to expand and reach talent that may otherwise go unnoticed. How could we forget All-Star Weekend, between the skills challenge, dunk contest, 3-point contest and the All-Star game itself there is a going on down in Charlotte.
