Washington Wizards use iPads
The Washington Wizards made team history this week by kicking off their training camp this Tuesday at midnight. They also made NBA history by becoming the first basketball team in the league to scrap their paper playbook in favor of brand new iPads.
Team owner Ted Leonsis is a high-tech wizard and made his millions during his time as a corporate executive with AOL in 90s so he encourages the team to try new things. Wizards Coach Flip Saunders had already introduced the team to interactive playbooks last summer when he provided all the players with an iPod Touch loaded up with all the team’s plays. This season, Saunders is taking it a step further and has moved the 250 page playbook to iPads and is also including video edits from the team’s games.
