Game on, world. The U.S. sports giant Nike does not only allow one to compete with themselves, friends or even the world. Those who dare can also compete with Germany's professional basketball No.1 Dirk Nowitzki in a "bump out". This was the case on the one-week basketball event "Berlin 5 on 5", which took place as part of the global campaign "Game on, world".
16 teams from the capital, including 14 men and 2 women's teams competed in 5 on 5 games against each other and competed for prizes as for example tickets to the game of the Dallas Mavericks against Alba Berlin in the O2 World hall.
Based on the new Nike + Basketball technology, three winners will be identified. A Nike + Sport sensor is integrated in the new Nike+ Hyperdunk shoe model that collects data on the movements of the wearer and sends it to a mobile phone via the Nike + Basketball app. Thus, the user can get information about how high he jumps and how hard and fast he plays.
For the players Dirk Nowitzki only had words of praise: "The teams have delivered exciting games and convinced by their skills. The Berlin basketball community lives. Berlin's basketball community lives."
