The Indiana Mad Ants are an American professional basketball team of the NBA G League based in Noblesville, Indiana, and are affiliated with the Indiana Pacers. The team plays their home games at Noblesville Event Center. From 2007 to 2023, the team played in Fort Wayne's Allen County War Memorial Coliseum and was known as the Fort Wayne Mad Ants. From 2023 to 2024, the team played in Indianapolis' Gainbridge Fieldhouse and was known as the Indiana Mad Ants.
The franchise won their first and only championship in 2013–14, and lost in the 2014–15 finals, when the G League was known as the NBA D-League. In September 2015, Pacers Sports & Entertainment (PS&E), parent company of the Indiana Pacers purchased the Mad Ants.[5]
The NBA G League underwent an overhaul in sponsorship and appearance prior to the 2017-18 season. With global partners such as Nike and Gatorade joining forces with the NBA, the Mad Ants received a new blue-and-gold look to correspond with its NBA affiliate, the Indiana Pacers.
