Basketball League

The United States Basketball League (USBL) is the first and only sports league structured as a franchisor and the only publicly-traded sports league (OTCBB: USBL). Operating since 1985, the USBL has seen 150 of its former players “graduate” to the National Basketball Association (NBA). The USBL is a unique investment vehicle that allows its stakeholders to benefit dramatically from an expected upward valuation in the cost of franchises. Potentially, there are approximately 100 small-to-medium sized cities in the United States that could accommodate a USBL franchise. Owning a professional sports team is more affordable than you may think.
