The NBA has ordered the Atlanta Hawks to cancel a scheduled in-arena promotion involving Magic City, the Atlanta club that had been set to partner with the team for an upcoming game, after receiving significant pushback, according to the team.
The Hawks had planned to highlight Magic City during a home contest at State Farm Arena. Details of the activation were not released, but the promotion was pulled following complaints that the partnership was not in line with the league’s image standards.
Neither the NBA nor the Hawks disclosed the exact nature of the objections, and a new promotion has not yet been announced.
