An insurer has announced a new sports marketing arrangement.
Hartford Financial Services Group Inc., Hartford, is paying to change the name of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Challenge to the Hartford Hall of Fame Showcase.
Game Seven Sports Marketing, Louisville, Ky., and the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, Springfield, Mass., organize the annual 2-game basketball showcase. Revenue from the event helps support the Basketball Hall of Fame.

The showcase is set to move to Indianapolis in 2008, and to Charlotte, N.C., in 2009.
