RENO, NEV., March 19, 2014 - The Reno Bighorns would like to congratulate our very own Elyssa Brock on her call up to the Philadelphia 76ers. Brock will join the 76ers as an Account Executive next week.

Coaches, referees, trainers and front office staff members are all eligible candidates for development into the NBA.

Her experiences here in Reno will help make her a success in Philadelphia. From the basketball court to the front office, the Reno Bighorns will continue to develop tomorrow's talent for the NBA. I know that our community and the Reno Bighorns Family wish Elyssa the best. We are excited to watch her as she continues her growth as a superior sports business executive."
