East London All-Stars is an English basketball team based in the Newham area of East London. The team was formed in 2010 as the senior team of the Newham All-Star Sports Academy, or NASSA for short, and were originally named Newham Neptunes before being rebranded to East London All-Stars in 2015.[1]

The All-Star's play their home games at the University of East London's SportsDock facility, and currently compete in the English Basketball League (EBL) Division 2. As the Newham Neptunes, the team achieved a rapid ascension through the lower divisions of English basketball since their establishment and spent several years in Division 1 before being relegated in 2015.[2]
