Hasbro, in partnership with Fanatics, the National Basketball Association (NBA) and National Basketball Players Association (NBPA), have announced the first series of action figures featuring NBA players, following the re-launch of sports collectibles brand Starting Lineup.  

The initial series of Starting Lineup NBA figures are now available for pre-order, exclusively on Hasbro Pulse and across the Fanatics network of online sites.
