    Media Contact: Brandon Moyer – [email protected], 804-814-7275 Michaela Robbins – [email protected], 423-991-7212 The 2015 Racial and Gender Report Card: National Basketball Association by Richard Lapchick with Angelica Guiao Published on July 1, 2015 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Orlando, FL, July 1, 2015 – The 2015 National Basketball Association Racial and Gender Report Card (RGRC) was released today and confirmed the League’s continued leadership position in the sports industry with its commitment to and record for racial and gender hiring practices during the 2014-2015 NBA season. The NBA once again received men’s sports only A+ for racial hiring practices and men’s sports only B+ for gender hiring practices with scores of 97.4 points (up from 96.4) and 88 points (up from 86.5), respectively. The overall grade was an A with 92.7 points, up from 90.9 in the 2014 RGRC. The NBA was the best for all three categories among the men’s professional sports and achieved the highest grade for racial hiring practices in the history of men’s professional sport. Richard Lapchick, the director of The Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport (TIDES or The Institute) and primary author of the report, stated, “No other men’s league reaches the same points for race, gender or the combined score. The NBA remains the industry leader among men’s sports for racial hiring practices. While they did well overall for gender, especially in the League Office, women were still not well represented at the senior team levels and attention needs to be paid there.
