HBCU Fellowship- NBA Foundation

The NBA HBCU Fellowship Program is creating pathways and opening doors! 🏀✨HBCU Fellowship – NBA Foundation

With over 10,000 applicants, these two outstanding students rose to the top and were selected for this highly competitive, 10-week paid summer internship immersing them in the business of basketball across the NBA and its affiliate teams.

Even more impactful they discovered this opportunity through the Career Pathways Center at Texas Southern University! 🎓

Way to go, Tigers! 🐯 Nothing like following through, networking, and seizing the moment!

Shoutout to this year’s fellows:
🔹 Deondre Jones – Basketball Communications Intern, New Orleans Pelicans

We look forward to working with you this Fall as we launch the next application cycle and can’t wait to see even more Tigers in the 2027 class!
