The NBA is giving out FREE basketballs in Vancouver right now

The NBA has taken over Vancouver.

If you don’t have tickets for today’s preseason game between the Toronto Raptors and Portland Trailblazers, there’s still ways to get in on all the action.

Mixing art with sport, NBA Crossover from the NBA, Footlocker, and Vancouver basketball fans has brought a “cultural exhibition celebrating the convergence of the NBA and popular culture.”

It started with an event at The Permanent in downtown, which you can attend for free today, and it’s continuing by giving out hundreds of Spalding basketballs.

Get to the Vancouver Art Gallery’s north plaza right now, as 300 balls have lined the steps this morning – all for the taking.

• UPDATE: The balls are all gone
