During the “#NBATwitter” session, part of the CES Sports Zone Conference Track, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver discussed how their partnership is a perfect fit for the younger demographics watching basketball – many of whom are hungry for an accessible source of information. Moderated by ESPN anchor Rachel Nichols, Silver and Dorsey explained how loyal viewers have used Twitter to create their own fast-paced channel to report the game and share their thoughts. Silver described the NBA’s relationship with Twitter as a “virtuous circle” because the league also finds out news and trends from the social media site, keeping the online community vibrant and flourishing.
