The National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) is the labor union representing active players in the National Basketball Association. Founded in 1954, it is based in New York City and operates within the spectator sports industry. Its mandate is to safeguard and advance players' rights through collective bargaining and governance. The NBPA serves NBA players as its primary constituency, addressing professional standards, bargaining terms, and overall rights within a league framework. In 2026 it supported a new product initiative by announcing an open beta for NBA THE RUN, a collaboration with Play by Play Studios and the NBA slated for May 30, 2026 on multiple platforms.
