Produktbeschreibung

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Tulsa 66ers are an NBA Development League team based in Tulsa, Oklahoma and the minor league affliate of the Oklahoma City Thunder. Their logo design is a basketball behind mountains with a road leading up to them, all on a U.S. Highway shield. The 66ers are named for the famous US Highway 66 ("Route 66"), which runs through Tulsa and once played a pivotal role in its economy. The team has one affiliate club in the NBA: the Oklahoma City Thunder. The New York Knicks were formerly an affiliate through the end of the 2007?08 season. Prior to the 2005?06 season, the team was the Asheville Altitude and played in the Asheville Civic Center in Asheville, North Carolina, where they won two NBDL championships. The teams named was in reference to the nearby Blue Ridge Mountains. Upon moving, all of the team's hard assets were then sold to former Tulsa 66ers owner Southwest Basketball, LLC, which also owns the Albuquerque Thunderbirds and theReno Bighorns. The Asheville Altitude were a founding team of the NBDL in 2001.
