n25:abstract
The National Basketball League, often abbreviated to the NBL, is the pre-eminent men's professional basketball league in New Zealand. There are currently 10 teams in the 2010 competition with teams based in Christchurch, Dunedin, Hamilton, Invercargill, Nelson, New Plymouth, North Shore, Palmerston North, Taradale and Wellington. The Auckland Stars were suspended from the current competition because of financial difficulties. Invercargill club the Southland Sharks joined the competition in 2010 as well as the Otago Nuggets rejoining the league after a year absence. The league has a limit of two imports per side. Many of the imports used come from the ANBL such as New Zealand Breakers Power forward Tony Ronaldson and Wollongong Hawks Center Tim Behrendorff. Others come from the American college system like former Syracuse Orange and now Wellington Saints Shooting guard Eric Devendorf. The quality of play in the league continues to improve as more and more New Zealand players are playing higher levels of basketball like college, ANBL and some even go onto make the NBA such as former North Harbour Kings star Kirk Penney who played for the Miami Heat and Los Angeles Clippers and is currently contracted to the New Zealand Breakers and Sioux Falls Skyforce in the NBA Development League. Televised games have decreased since 2007 when TVNZ's television rights were sold to Sky TV, games were originally shown once a week but due to lack of demand only playoff games were shown mainly due Super Rugby, NRL and ANZ Championship games clashing with game times and a high interest by the public in those competitions. Southland Sharks highlights and interviews have been shown on Cue TV.
