With a bold mission to entertain and unite the city through basketball, the Atlanta Hawks Basketball Club is committed to making Atlantans proud on the court and off. During their 50 years in Atlanta the Hawks made the postseason for 10 consecutive seasons from 2008–2017 and became the 2014-15 Southeast Division Champions, reaching the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in franchise history in 2015. Under the leadership of principal owner Tony Ressler and vice chair of the board and basketball icon Grant Hill, the organization has built a culture of inclusion, diversity and innovation, all with a touch of Southern Hospitality. That continues into the community where the team builds bridges through basketball, through programs such a constructing and refurbishing public courts in metro Atlanta neighborhoods and providing scholarships to its basketball camps and clinics. The home of the Hawks, State Farm Arena hosts approximately 160 events and nearly 2 million guests annually with a capacity of more than 17,000. A 100 percent smoke-free campus, State Farm Arena is consistently ranked among the top 10 concert and event venues in the world. October 2018 will see the culmination of the nearly $200 million renovation that will re-imagine the building from the roofline to the baseline with better sightlines, massive video displays, the right-sized suite for every business, and great food and drink.

The Arizona Coyotes are a professional ice hockey team based in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona. They compete in the National Hockey League's (NHL) Pacific Division of the Western Conference. Since December 2003, the Coyotes have played their home games at Gila River Arena after having spent the previous 7½ seasons at America West Arena (now US Airways Center) in downtown Phoenix. The Coyotes were founded on December 27, 1971 as the original Winnipeg Jets of the World Hockey Association (WHA). After the WHA had ceased operations, they were one of four original franchises absorbed into the National Hockey League and then officially granted membership on June 22, 1979. The Jets moved to Phoenix on July 1, 1996 and were renamed as the Phoenix Coyotes. The NHL took over ownership of the Phoenix Coyotes franchise in 2009 after previous owner Jerry Moyes (who had incurred massive financial losses since his purchase of the team in 2005) turned it over to the league after declaring bankruptcy. Prior to that, Moyes had previously attempted to privately sell the team to Canadian billionaire Jim Balsillie, who wanted to relocate the team to Hamilton, Ontario, but the NHL protested that the attempted sale was a violation of league policy and a court agreed. In the 4 years that followed, the league vehemently resisted selling the team to interests that would have moved the team out of the Phoenix area, and on July 3, 2013, reached an agreement that will keep the team in Glendale for the near future. The sale to IceArizona Acquisition Co., LLC. was completed on August 5, 2013. On June 27, 2014, the team changed its franchise name to ""Arizona Coyotes"" and modified its secondary logo.
