The NBA announced that Toronto Raptors Governor Larry Tanenbaum has been unanimously re-elected Chairman of the NBA Board of Governors.

Tanenbaum, the longtime Chairman of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE), has served as NBA Board Chairman since 2017, when he became the first Canadian to ever be named to the role. Under his leadership, the Raptors captured the franchise’s first NBA championship in 2019.

“I am delighted that Larry will continue serving the league as our Chairman of the Board,” said NBA Commissioner Adam Silver. “His leadership, guidance and support are greatly appreciated by me and my colleagues as well as the other team governors.”

"I am honoured to continue serving as Chairman of the NBA Board of Governors to help play a role in leading this great league," said Tanenbaum. "I am grateful to my fellow governors for their valued support and I look forward to working with each of them, and Commissioner Silver along with the League Office staff, as we continue to grow the NBA's impact on the game of basketball and in our communities."

A Toronto native, Tanenbaum served on numerous NBA committees before becoming Chairman, including the Advisory/Finance Committee from 2008-17 and the Planning Committee from 2000-14.
