Wemby mania helped create three sellouts of 17,500 each day for opening day Friday, Saturday and Sunday before attendance at the NBA Summer League checked in at 12,356 at Thomas & Mack Center/Cox Pavilion on Monday.
Thanks to the buzz around the Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama, the league’s overall No. 1 draft pick, it was the biggest opening weekend for the NBA Summer League:
Then on Tuesday, seven companies picked by the NBA for the league’s technology launch held an expo to showcase their products from 2-7 PM. With the NBA a global entertainment sport, two of the seven companies are based in foreign nations. Here are the seven:
Advancing The Game
• SkillCorner (Paris, France): Technology that uses computer vision and machine learning to
generate player tracking data from existing video feeds.
• Springbok Analytics (Charlottesville, Virginia): AI-based technology that transforms MRI
data into a 3D digital twin, quantifying an athlete’s musculature for precision health and
performance optimization.
• Supersapiens (Atlanta, Georgia): Technology that analyzes glucose data to inform athletes
how nutrition impacts their well-being, sleep and athletic performance.
Enhancing The Fan Experience
• Action Audio (Victoria, Australia): Technology that transforms spatial data into information-
rich 3D sound experiences, helping blind/low vision audiences to follow sport in real time.
• EDGE Sound Research (Riverside, California): Embodied sound technology that leverages
standard audio inputs to produce audible, haptic and tactile sensation directly to a fan within an
arena or at home for sports, music and gaming.
• nVenue (Houston, Texas): Sports betting platform that uses machine learning and AI to
generate game-relevant probabilities and micro-bets for fans to engage with in real-time.
• Tagboard (Redmond, Washington): Audience experience platform designed to help
production teams create the most engaging content in the world with a fraction of the resources
required by traditional graphics systems.
