The NBA Academy Women's program has tasted plenty of success in India.
Three years since its first-ever camp in May of 2018, the program's assistance has resulted in eight teenage girls committing to prep schools or colleges in the United States.

The program's 2021 edition aims to bring together over 40 girls from across the globe, between the ages of 14 and 17, and provide them the chance to develop their on and off-court skills to eventually, possibly be invited to an in-person event in the future.
