The Sudbury Five are an announced Canadian professional basketball team based in Sudbury that plans to start competing in the National Basketball League of Canada (NBL Canada) in the 2018–19 season. The team is owned by Sudbury Wolves Sports and will play in Sudbury Community Arena.[1]

The team's name and logo refer to the last digit in the 705 area code that serves Northern Ontario, the five-cent nickel coin, and the five players playing for each team in a basketball team.[2]

Arena

The team will play at Sudbury Community Arena. Tickets for basketball will only be sold on the sides and floor of the arena, giving it a capacity 2,500 to start with room to expand.[3]
