NBA star Tristan Thompson to launch player tokenization platform Basketball.fun in partnership with Somnia
On September 19, it was reported that NBA star Tristan Thompson, together with Improbable CEO Herman Narula and co-founder Hadi Teherany, will launch a Web3 basketball fan experience (player tokenization) platform called basketball.fun in October. The platform is built on the layer-1 blockchain Somnia, which launched on September 2, and will tokenize NBA players, with their value fluctuating in real time based on sentiment and performance. Fans can build lineups, speculate on emerging talent, and earn rewards based on predictions and engagement. Teherany stated that the application will not launch a native token, but will focus on infrastructure, gamification, and fan empowerment.
