NBA Allows Teams To Streamline Video Access Between Bench, Locker Rooms

The NBA this season will allow teams to use "hard-wired connections from the bench to review and cut video for immediate access, transfer video between bench personnel and the locker rooms and access data rather than have that info delivered from the video room to the bench," according to Jeff Zillgitt of USA TODAY. The league since '12-13 has "allowed teams to access video and data from the bench, but it had to [be] delivered to the bench and then uploaded." Now, each team will have a "separate and secure hard-wired connection to access video and data." This also gives team doctors and medical personnel the ability to "review potential injuries immediately on a laptop or tablet" (USA TODAY, 9/30).
