Eyeing a deep playoff run this season, the Toronto Raptors are doing everything in their power to claim the NBA Eastern Conference. After officially opening a new state-of-the-art training facility yesterday, the BioSteel Centre, the Raptors also announced a partnership with IBM.
The Raptors installed the IBM Sports Insights Central, a data analytics platform for talent assessment that is powered by IBM Watson. Raptors management are now able to view, organize and sift through relevant data about their current roster and the rest of the NBA.
