It was revealed this week that the new Darwin club to enter the NBL1 North in 2022 will be called the Darwin Salties. The name is in reference to the Saltwater Crocodile, which is an iconic animal notably linked to Darwin and the Northern Territory.

Last month, the NBL1 and Basketball Queensland announced that a team from Darwin under the joint management of Darwin Basketball Association (DBA) and Basketball Northern Territory (BNT) would enter the NBL1 North in 2022. The team's entry will see the NBL1 become the first Australian sport league to have clubs based in and playing out of every state and territory in Australia.

Darwin Basketball Association revealed the team name and logo on Monday and announced that the inaugural coaches would be former NBL player and coach Matt Flinn (men) and BNT High Performance & Development Manager Rod Tremlett (women).

The Salties' first game is due to be played, at home, at the Darwin Basketball Stadium in April.
