NBA seeks agreement with players on in-game wearables use

NBA commissioner Adam Silver is advocating for players to wear technology during games, which currently is restricted by the collective bargaining agreement. Concerns from the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) center on potential misuse of player data in contract negotiations. While some discussions have been held, no recent talks have occurred regarding changes. Referees have tested wearables during Summer League games, providing insights for potential use. Silver remains optimistic that an agreement will be reached with the players' union.
