Recently, Reddit Community Funds and r/NBA joined forces to celebrate the subreddit’s 15th Cake Day! In the spirit of community engagement, our team is excited to give each team’s fan base the chance to back up their enthusiasm in a lively and competitive manner.

Here’s how it works: Every week, the team with the highest total donation amount will have the subreddit transformed to showcase their fandom.

As part of this transformation, we’ll change the banner, flairs and sidebar image to represent the winning team. This could be the Raptors choosing a photo of crying Embiid, LeBron collapsed in disbelief after the no-call last year, Steven Adams getting kicked by Draymond and so much more!

To participate head to The Boys & Girls Clubs of America fundraiser page found HERE

    1. Choose the team you’d like to support
    1. Select your preferred payment method and provide information

The team that raises the lowest funds will have an exclusive trash talk thread dedicated to them.

    I will donate only if my flair can be Rodney Stuckeyes face.

    Do we have a deal?

    “The team that raises the lowest funds will have an exclusive trash talk thread dedicated to them”

    I think this is a nice idea. But dammit I already know we got too many wives, have no internet and need to give our name back to New Orleans

    Can we count Raptors donations in $CAD? It’s a huge disadvantage to have our donations counted in $USD.

      That’s no problem - Tiltify registers all donations in CAD but I can convert it manually

    How do we put support together for the nba or the nbpa to put together a statement in support of Palestine. They were quick to support Israel but now that the major consensus of the world has condemned Israel, it’s about time the nba carries the weight of their quick support

      Considering that almost nobody has donated so far, I bet that you can make a difference for your team.

    Dope so we’re just planning on punishing a small market team in a poor city right of the bat, huh?

    I don’t have a problem with you guys doing this but can we not leave this sticky up over the substantially more useful game thread links?

    You mods should put some focus into the needs of this subreddit and its users before prioritizing this extra stuff which frankly nobody cares about.

    How would the boys and girls clubs of America react if they knew they were getting donations from a subreddit who supports Hamas’s terror in the Middle East?
