NBA, Google Partner For League’s First Original VR Series ‘House Of Legends’

Imagine being able to sit in a lounge with seven-time NBA All-Star champion Robert Horry as he discusses clutch performances in the NBA playoffs and the biggest moments throughout his career.

Through a partnership with the NBA and Google, fans will be able to do just that. On Friday, the league and technology company is launching the NBA’s first original virtual reality series, “House of Legends,” which is being made available via a new NBA VR app on Daydream.

From Google’s expanded relationship with the NFL, where it produced a nine-part virtual reality series last fall, the company learned that episodic content is a current focus around sports.
