The Crew League(stylized TCL) is an indoor street rules basketball league founded by hip hop mogul and actor Diddy[1] and producer Elie Maroun[2] for Revolt TV streaming. The league consists of numerous teams whose rosters led by hip hop artists. The artists lead teams that include both current NBAG League and former Junior League, as well as streetball players, and Drew League alumni. The rules of The Crew League games contain deviations from the official rules of 5-on-5 basketball as administered by FIBA. Baskets are scored on one and two-point shots, and the games end on 21, with win-by-two rules.[1]

History

Season 1 took place in 2021 on Revolt TV. The games are hosted by floor reporter battle rapper Nems[3], along with play-by-play commentator and MC Buster Scher, founder of HoopsNation.[4] [5]

Rules

The current rules depart from regular full-court basketball in the following ways.

Teams

Each team consists of five players and any number of substitutes. Each team must have the captains in the game simultaneously, and subbed out at the same time.
