The LED court used in last summer’s FIBA U19 Women’s Basketball World Cup was a huge success, previewing the future of basketball. The next step of the ASB GlassFloor falls into the NBA and events scheduled for the 2024 All-Star weekend.

The NBA detailed the new addition on Monday.

Per the press release: “The NBA today unveiled the state-of-the-art full video LED court, developed by ASB GlassFloor, that will be used for NBA All-Star 2024 events taking place at Lucas Oil Stadium, which includes the Ruffles NBA All-Star Celebrity Game (Feb. 16) and State Farm® All-Star Saturday Night (Feb. 17), consisting of the Kia Skills Challenge, the STARRY® 3-Point Contest, “Stephen vs. Sabrina,” the first-ever NBA vs. WNBA 3-Point Challenge and AT&T Slam Dunk.

The high-performance, immersive sports floor is designed to enhance the fan experience in-arena and on broadcast through its interactive displays.  During each event, visual effects displayed on the court will include the following:

  • Design and color changes
  • Live replays and other video content
  • Real-time game stats
  • Location-based player tracking animations
  • Interactive games for fans during timeouts
  • Immersive animations following key plays and moments

Additional previews of the LED court will be shared across the league’s social channels in the coming weeks ahead of NBA All-Star 2024.

Lucas Oil Stadium will be home to the Ruffles NBA All-Star Celebrity Game on Friday, Feb. 16, airing at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN and State Farm All-Star Saturday Night on Saturday, Feb. 17 airing at 8 p.m. ET on TNT in the United States and reaching fans in more than 200 countries and territories in more than 50 languages.”
