2011–12 NBA Development League season

The 2011–12 NBA Development League season is the 11th season of the NBA Development League (NBA D-League). The NBA D-League is the official minor league basketball organization owned and run by the National Basketball Association (NBA). The league was formed in 2001 as the National Basketball Development League (NBDL). The league adopted its current name in 2005 to reflect its close affiliation with the NBA. The 2011–12 season will be competed by 16 teams. The Los Angeles D-Fenders, after spending one season inactive, joined the 15 returning teams from the previous season. The Utah Flash ceased operation at the end of the previous season and would not be playing in the 2011–12 season. The New Mexico Thunderbirds relocated to Canton, Ohio and were renamed as the Canton Charge.

This season, an all-time high nine teams will have single-affiliation partnerships with NBA teams, up from four in the previous season.[1][2] Five of them, the Austin Toros, the Canton Charge, the Dakota Wizards, the Los Angeles D-Fenders and the Tulsa 66ers, are owned by their NBA affiliates. Four teams, the Erie BayHawks, the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, the Springfield Armor and the Texas Legends, have a hybrid single-affiliation partnership with NBA teams, where their basketball operations are controlled by their NBA affiliates. The other seven teams are affiliated with three NBA teams each.[1][2]

Team changes edit

Affiliation changes edit

On July 7, 2011, the league announced the affiliation system for the season. Five teams, the Austin Toros, the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, the Texas Legends and the Tulsa 66ers, continued their single-affiliation partnerships with their parent teams. The Los Angeles D-Fenders, who returned after one-year hiatus, resumed their single-affiliation partnership with the Los Angeles Lakers. Four teams, the Canton Charge, the Dakota Wizards and the Erie BayHawks, each began a single-affiliation partnership with an NBA team. The Springfield Armor also began a single-affiliation partnership with the New Jersey Nets, their NBA affiliate for last two seasons. The other seven teams are affiliated with three NBA teams each. Only one team, the Fort Wayne Mad Ants, retained the same affiliates from the previous season. Due to several team changes above and other circumstances, some affiliation changes occurred.[2]

Coaching changes edit

Offseason edit

In-season edit

Players edit

An NBA D-League team roster consists of draftees, returning, allocation and tryout players. In addition, NBA teams can assign players who are on their first or second NBA season to their D-League affiliates. The roster must consist of 10 D-League players, but the maximum roster size is 12 players, including NBA assignees. If a team had more than two NBA assignees, the team must reduce its roster to avoid having more than 12 players. In the D-League, all players sign a one-year NBA D-League Standard Player Contract with the league, not with the specific D-League teams.[25]

Returning players are players who played in the league during the previous season and are retained by their respective teams. The D-League teams are allowed to invite a limited number of returning players. Players who signed a D-League contract but are not retained by their previous teams are placed on the draft pool, along with new players who also sign with the league.[26] Tryout players are the players who are invited to join the D-League team from the open tryouts which are held by each teams in October, before the season began.[25]

Draft edit

The eleventh annual NBA Development League Draft was held on November 3, 2011. In this draft, all 16 teams took turns selecting eligible players for their roster. Former NBA first-round draft pick and eight-year NBA veteran Jamaal Tinsley was selected first by the Los Angeles D-Fenders. Another former NBA first-round pick Alando Tucker was selected second by the Texas Legends. Former NBA second-round pick Gabe Pruitt was also selected in the first-round. Other notable picks in the later rounds are former NBA players Cedric Bozeman and Chris Taft who were selected in the second and fourth round respectively. 18 players selected in the draft were participants of the NBA D-League National Tryouts that were held in June. A total of 127 players were selected in the eight-round draft.[27]

Assignments edit

Each NBA team can assign players with two years or less of experience to its affiliated NBA Development League team. Players with more than two years of experience may be assigned to the D-League with the players' consent.[28]

Call-ups edit

 
Nine-year NBA veteran Mike James was called up from the Erie BayHawks to the Chicago Bulls four times during the season.
 
Nine-year NBA veteran Bobby Simmons was called up from the Reno Bighorns to the Los Angeles Clippers two times during the season.

A call-up occurs when a player is signed by an NBA team. An NBA team is allowed to sign any D-League player as long as they are eligible to play in the NBA under the current Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). However, an NBA team could not call-up a player whose draft rights are still held by other NBA teams. A D-League player is usually signed to a 10-day contracts, a short term contract which lasted ten days and are available to be used starting February 6. A player can only sign two 10-day contracts with the same team in one season. If the team want to retain the player after the second 10-day contract expired, the team has to sign the player for the remainder of the season.[29]

Due to the 2011 NBA lockout, the D-League season started earlier than the NBA season. Therefore, the NBA training camps, which are usually attended by a number of D-League players to compete for a spot on NBA roster, started on December 9, three weeks after the D-League season started. A total of 62 D-League players left their teams to attend NBA training camps.[30] Eleven of them made the NBA opening day roster on December 25 and therefore they are considered as NBA call-ups.[31]

As of April 6, 2012, there has been 49 call-ups, involving 33 different players. 22 of them are still on the NBA roster, although 6 of them are currently on 10-day contracts. The Los Angeles D-Fenders and the Austin Toros have the most players called up with five players, while the Erie BayHawks each has four players called up. Mike James received the most call-ups with four, all of them to the Chicago Bulls. Two players, Mickell Gladness and Donald Sloan, has been called up three times. Gladness was called up by the Miami Heat (twice) and the Golden State Warriors, while Sloan was called up to three different NBA teams, the Atlanta Hawks, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the New Orleans Hornets.

consists of draftees returning allocation and tryout players In addition NBA teams can assign players who are on their first or second NBA season to their D League affiliates The roster must consist of 10 D League players but the maximum roster size is 12 players including NBA assignees If a team had more than two NBA assignees the team must reduce its roster to avoid having more than 12 players In the D League all players sign a one year NBA D League Standard Player Contract with the league not with the specific D League teams 25 Returning players are players who played in the league during the previous season and are retained by their respective teams The D League teams are allowed to invite a limited number of returning players Players who signed a D League contract but are not retained by their previous teams are placed on the draft pool along with new players who also sign with the league 26 Tryout players are the players who are invited to join the D League team from the open tryouts which are held by each teams in October before the season began 25 Draft edit The eleventh annual NBA Development League Draft was held on November 3 2011 In this draft all 16 teams took turns selecting eligible players for their roster Former NBA first round draft pick and eight year NBA veteran Jamaal Tinsley was selected first by the Los Angeles D Fenders Another former NBA first round pick Alando Tucker was selected second by the Texas Legends Former NBA second round pick Gabe Pruitt was also selected in the first round Other notable picks in the later rounds are former NBA players Cedric Bozeman and Chris Taft who were selected in the second and fourth round respectively 18 players selected in the draft were participants of the NBA D League National Tryouts that were held in June A total of 127 players were selected in the eight round draft 27 Assignments edit For a more comprehensive list see List of 2011 12 NBA season transactions D League assignments Each NBA team can assign players with two years or less of experience to its affiliated NBA Development League team Players with more than two years of experience may be assigned to the D League with the players consent 28 Call ups edit nbsp Nine year NBA veteran Mike James was called up from the Erie BayHawks to the Chicago Bulls four times during the season nbsp Nine year NBA veteran Bobby Simmons was called up from the Reno Bighorns to the Los Angeles Clippers two times during the season A call up occurs when a player is signed by an NBA team An NBA team is allowed to sign any D League player as long as they are eligible to play in the NBA under the current Collective Bargaining Agreement CBA However an NBA team could not call up a player whose draft rights are still held by other NBA teams A D League player is usually signed to a 10 day contracts a short term contract which lasted ten days and are available to be used starting February 6 A player can only sign two 10 day contracts with the same team in one season If the team want to retain the player after the second 10 day contract expired the team has to sign the player for the remainder of the season 29 Due to the 2011 NBA lockout the D League season started earlier than the NBA season Therefore the NBA training camps which are usually attended by a number of D League players to compete for a spot on NBA roster started
