NBA League Pass is getting major AI improvements before the new season starts

The NBA app is bound to receive a bunch of important improvements for the 2024-25 season, the NBA announced this week. The official home of basketball is bringing multiview to its app, as well as the ability to customize your viewing experience.

With the Multiview feature, subscribers will be able to watch up to four games simultaneously on NBA League Pass. Besides that, subscribers worldwide will be able to customize their experience and always be live when watching NBA games.

First off, the NBA app is getting the ability to smart rewind games from any point with key plays highlighted. Also, subscribers can download full games for offline viewing and access a range of game recap versions including “All Possessions,” “10-Minute Condensed,” “Key Highlights,” and more.

NBA also announced that its app will offer interactive synced stats and analytics. And with “NBA Insights,” an AI-powered tool that takes advantage of the power of Microsoft Azure, subscribers will be provided with in-depth details about players performances and notable milestones.

Unsurprisingly, NBA confirmed that the app will be using Generative AI to localize content, offering game recaps in French, Portuguese and Spanish, along with translations for select original programming and live games.

But wait, there’s more! NBA revealed that its app will include “Dunk Score” throughout the season. Dunk Score is an AI-calculated grade for in-game dunks in real-time based on multiple factors such as the player’s jumping distance, style and force at the rim, as well as the defensive efforts from the opposing team.
