Six months ago, Nike started an experimental tech programme called Hyper Court. The aim was to build the world's first Google tech-powered courts that can provide basketball training to kids with little access to coaches or the internet.

Just by pre-downloading and turning on the Hyper Court training app, users can learn the moves of NBA superstars LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, Russell Westbrook and Kyrie Irving. No data connection is required once the app is downloaded.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
