The NBA has called off the Atlanta Hawks’ planned strip-club–themed promotion night after the league voiced “significant concerns,” according to a report published Monday, March 9 2026.
The event, which the team had scheduled as a game-night promotion, was scrapped following discussions between league officials and the franchise, the report said. Details about the planned activation were not released.
In its brief statement to the outlet, the NBA said the concept did not meet league standards and would not move forward. The Hawks have not issued a public comment.
No replacement promotion has been announced.
