IMG Academy to host NBA training camp

For the second year in a row, the NBA's Cleveland Cavaliers will hold preseason training camp at IMG Academy in Bradenton. The six-day camp will run Sept. 30 to Oct. 5 to prepare the team for the 2025–2026 season.

“Returning to IMG Academy is a testament to the tremendous experience we had there last year,” Cavaliers President of Basketball Operations Koby Altman says in a statement.

In 2024, the Cavaliers became the first NBA team to hold training camp at the 600-acre Bradenton campus, which is also home to a boarding school for student-athletes.
