NBA veteran Chris Paul founded his AAU team, CP3 All-Stars, for the Nike EYBL circuit. Paul’s team is now known as “Team CP3.” Carmelo Anthony established “Team Melo” back in 2016 as well. Furthermore, Kevin Durant also formed “Team Durant” in 2010.

MOKAN Elite has won three championships, the most of any Nike EYBL team. In last year’s Peach Jam Tournament Championship, MOKAN Elite won 53-52 over Team Takeover. Elite also won its first title in 2016 over PSA Cardinals and its second against Russell Westbrook’s Team Why Not in 2019.

For the current Nike EYBL leaderboard standings, Vegas Elite (4-0) and NJ Scholars (4-0) lead Group A while NH Lightning (4-0) and Team CP3 (4-0) rank at the top of Group B. Five teams are winless with 0-4 records: ProSkills, Team Why Not, NW Rotary Rebels, Strive For Greatness, and Georgia Stars.
