The Arkansas Fantastics was a expansion team in the American Basketball Association that was scheduled to begin play in 2007 in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

The 2007-2008 ABA season saw nearly twenty teams fold within its first five weeks. This included the Fantastics who never started the season.[1] Several of the remaining teams left the ABA to join other existing leagues. Only 35% of the games were actually played in the 2007/08 season.[2][3]

Ownership

The team was co-owned by former America's Next Top Model contestant Furonda Brasfield and Arkansas Razorbacks all-time assist and steals leader Kareem Reid.
