On an amazing week of basketball in Melbourne, the highlight might well have been the Summer Jam Festival at Prahran Gardens and all you had to do was look at the way it was embraced from current and former NBL players around the country and the public to get a good idea of its reach.
What a weekend of basketball it was in Melbourne. There was a record crowd attending the WNBL match at John Cain Arena between Lauren Jackson’s Southside Flyers and the Sydney Flames.

Then on Sunday, there was a sold out crowd for the last game of the NBL regular season for Melbourne United against the Adelaide 36ers with a potential playoff spot on the line.
But what captured the imagination more than anything was the 11th annual Summer Jam Championship held at Prahran Gardens as the event continues to go from strength to strength.
