NBA Replay uses NBA archive footage

NEW YORK, May 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Inspired Entertainment, Inc. (“Inspired” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: INSE), a leading B2B provider of gaming content, systems and solutions, announced today announced the debut of its NBA Re-Play Virtual Sports product exclusively in Greece with long-time partner OPAP. OPAP is the leading gaming company in Greece and one of the most renowned internationally, offering a wide range of games including numerical lotteries, sports betting, passive lotteries, scratch cards, etc.

The partnership strategically positions OPAP as the first Inspired partner to officially launch NBA Re-Play in more than 3,000 retail stores. In this way, OPAP is a pioneer in the market, offering an innovative virtual gaming experience to its customers throughout Greece.

Last year, Inspired signed a groundbreaking agreement with the National Basketball Association (NBA) and the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA), the association of current professional basketball players in the NBA, securing the rights to develop virtual sports games using archived footage from the leading professional basketball league and its players.

NBA Re-Play allows fans to bet on simulated, fast-paced matchups using archival footage from all 30 NBA teams. Users have many of the same betting options as a standard sportsbook, including moneyline bets and over/under total scores. Additionally, NBA Re-Play features authentic NBA trademarks and logos, as well as archived footage from NBA regular season games and tentpole events such as NBA All-Star, NBA Playoffs and NBA Finals.

“We are very pleased that OPAP has decided to add NBA Re-Play to its Virtual Sports portfolio. This product uses archival NBA footage to provide a unique virtual experience for fans around the world. OPAP's decision to be first to market shows their commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction. We look forward to continuing our strong collaboration.” said Brooks Pierce, President and Chief Executive Officer of Inspired.

“At OPAP we put the customer at the center of everything we do and are always looking for ways to improve their gaming experience. The exclusive launch of NBA Re-Play allows us to connect with our customers through fresh and exciting content. Greece is a country of basketball enthusiasts and we believe that NBA Re-Play is a great fit for our portfolio and offers even more entertainment options in our retail stores,” he said Jan Karas, Managing Director of OPAP.
