The camp will give players an opportunity to learn directly from current and former NBA and WNBA players and coaches and compete alongside other elite talent from around the region.
"Bringing Basketball Without Borders back to Singapore reflects our commitment to growing the game in the country and across Asia-Pacific," NBA Senior Vice President, Head of International Basketball Operations, Troy Justice said.
"This year’s camp is particularly special, as it will coincide with our new basketball and entertainment festival and the NBA Rising Stars Invitational, our first regional high-school basketball tournament. We look forward to a memorable week of events that will leave a lasting impact on fans and players from across the region."
Australian Boomers and Portland Trail Blazers big man Duop Reath will be on hand as a coach, alongside Boston Celtics guard and 2024 NBA champion Derrick White, Philadelphia 76ers All-Star guard Tyrese Maxey, and WNBA legend and 2025 FIBA Hall of Fame inductee Ticha Penicheiro.
Current NBA assistant coaches Vinay Bhavnani (Toronto Raptors), Jared Dudley (Dallas Mavericks), Ronald Nored (Atlanta Hawks) and Khalid Robinson (Golden State Warriors) will also be on hand to guide the juniors.
Along with the elite-level training, the campers will take part in life skills, leadership development and social responsibility programming.
"I’m excited to visit Singapore and be part of Basketball Without Borders for the first time," 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey said.
"I look forward to working with the top young players in the region and sharing my knowledge and experiences with them."
