PANews reported on September 19 that NBA player Tristan Thompson is partnering with Improbable CEO Herman Narula and co-founder Hadi Teherany to create a new Web3 experience project, bringing a new viewing experience to basketball fans in the digital age. The project is called basketball.fun and will launch before the NBA season in October, gamifying the interaction between fans, players, and games. It is developed on the Layer1 Blockchain Somnia that launched earlier this month. Unlike traditional fantasy sports or fan tokens, the platform will tokenize NBA players, with player value fluctuating in real time based on fan sentiment and performance. Fans can build lineups, predict rising stars, and earn rewards. Teherany emphasized that the application does not issue a native token; unlike projects that rely on token prices, player value will reflect fan sentiment and game results.
