This will enable Sorare to use the NBA's team names and player likenesses in its games.

Sorare to Release an NBA-Licensed Game Based on the NFT

The National Basketball Association (NBA) of the United States of America has entered into a new cooperation with the French fantasy NFT game developer Sorare to develop a new NFT-based video game. The company made the announcement that it has inked a multi-year arrangement to become the official NFT partner of the league. This means that the company will be allowed to use the likenesses of players, teams, and the league in its upcoming products.
Users will be able to construct a team of NFT card players in the next game, which is analogous to previous games that have already been presented by the organization. The users' point totals will be determined by the actual performances of the athletes on the team. In a similar fashion, the squad will have the opportunity to compete in a number of fantasy challenges hosted on the Sorare platform.

In response to this new information, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver indicated that this is not the league's first attempt to utilize blockchain technology.
