The face of the NBA would be well in phase to change with the arrival of the new portable technologies aiming at preserving the players like their capacities of play.

If many domains tend to develop in a way significant towards new technologies it’s good because innovation is the key word to stay at the top of the list, and this in the sports sector and more particularly the NBA got it right.Constantly evolving, the aim of the latter is toimprove the capacities of its teamsto be a lot better informed and objective as for the decisions (whether gambling or medical) to be taken so that they remain the best possible.

A visible change

Whereas 10 years ago a player could come to a game after eating a lot of fatty and sweet food such as pizza and soda (Kobe Bryant in the game against the Toronto Raptors) the players of today are extremely watched nutritionally speaking thanks to new technologies, their food is carefully selected.

Teams know a lot to handle better the capabilities of their players, while getting all the data is not easy, but they should be more accessible as you go. They gradually learn to take advantage of what is causing them trouble in order to gain efficiency, this by means ofanalyzes of which technological progress is capable.

In search of innovation

Currently investing in the Mayo Clinic (American University Hospital Research Federation, world renowned) in Minnesota with the aim of develop new devices or ways to improve, the NBA shows how much innovation and the research remain at the center of its development, with in particular the "Fort Wayne Mad Ants" of the NBA development League becoming, last year, the first team to wear new devices during a match.

These new portable technologies could improve the world of basketball in 5 points:

1 – Out-of-match training

What we tend to believe about portable technology is that it is only used to anticipate and prevent future injuries. But in reality all the data that the sensors record allow to do much more.

A simple, very light little sensor inserted into a player's jersey can provide information on his speed, his jumps, her strength, her precision.Thanks to these different analyzes, players can improve their position, rectify their faults and become much more reagents. These sensors would thus provide data outside of actual matches and inform players no matter when.

2 – Be more specific about the players' state

When very good players (Steph Curry, Klay Thompson etc.) seem to be reaching their limits it is legitimate to want learn more about their condition. New portable technologies would allow diagnosis clear players' abilities and limits to avoid injury or overwork.

3 – Make adjustments during playing times

Not only to prevent possible injuries, wearable technologies would helpoptimize or even maximize player capabilities and therefore the quality of the match for the viewers. Data would be recorded and analyzed in real time during the matches and would therefore offer the possibility of significant progress and a real turnaround.

4 – intelligent monitoring

If you can analyze your team why not analyze the opposing team? And thus have an idea of ​​their rotation and their way of playing etc …We will thus modify the game plan of his own team to adapt it and surpass players on the other side.

5 – Longer careers

Players preserved, followed, analyzes all thanks to portable technologies. It would therefore be possible to extend their careers by not overworking them, by knowing their limits and not pushing them to the limit.

The NBA is set to change, to be more efficient and aware of advances in technology.
