Inspired Exclusively Launches Virtual Sports Betting Game, “NBA Re-Play”, With OPAP
May 10 2024 - 7:00AM
Inspired Entertainment, Inc. (“Inspired” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:
INSE), a leading B2B provider of gaming content, systems and
solutions, 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 introduce NBA Re-Play across more
than 3,000 retail venues. This way, OPAP pioneers in the market and
provides an innovative virtual gaming experience to its customers
across Greece.
Last year, Inspired signed a game-changing agreement with the
National Basketball Association (NBA) and the National Basketball
Players Association (NBPA), the Union for current professional
basketball players in the NBA, securing the rights to develop
Virtual Sports games utilising archived footage from the leading
professional basketball league and its players.
NBA Re-Play allows fans to wager on simulated, fast-paced
matchups, featuring archival footage of all 30 NBA teams. Users
have many of the same wagering options as a standard sportsbook,
including money line bets and over/under total score. Additionally,
NBA Re-Play features authentic NBA marks and logos and archived
footage from NBA regular season games, and tentpole events
including NBA All-Star, NBA Playoffs, and NBA Finals.
"We are thrilled that OPAP has chosen to add NBA Re-Play to
their Virtual Sports portfolio. This product utilizes archived NBA
footage to provide a unique virtual experience for fans around the
globe. OPAP's decision to be the first to launch NBA Re-Play
showcases their dedication 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 customers at the center of everything we do,
always seeking ways to improve their gaming experience. The
exclusive introduction of NBA Re-Play enables us to engage 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 match to our portfolio, providing even more entertainment
options at our retail stores,” said Jan Karas, Chief
Executive Officer of OPAP.
