It's not often that one sees a basketball court completely decked out in LED lights and coloring, however the House of Mamba is aiming to change this perception through a tour of China. NIKE and ALQA have collaborated to come up with this design, which also takes inspiration from Kobe Bryant.
The court will change coloring and lighting depending on certain drills being done, and also to motivate players. Since Kobe Bryant recently worked with certain Chinese basketball players, NIKE thought it would be a good idea to base the LED system off the training regiment of the popular NBA star. After all, learning from the best will certain help one's chances of succeeding in no matter what they do.
