Adam Silver confirms bombshell AI plan to tackle soaring Achilles injuries in NBA
Adam Silver confirms bombshell AI plan to tackle soaring Achilles injuries in NBA (Image Source: Getty Images) Something new is unfolding in the NBA this season. Comments from the league office hint at a fresh approach to a worrying trend. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said there have been too many Achilles injuries lately. Because of that, the league is trying something new. Instead of just doing more check-ups, they're now using AI to help spot injury risks early. But what does that really mean for players? And how will AI make a difference? NBA introduces AI tracking after rise in Achilles tears NBA boss Adam Silver spoke to the media and talked about a serious rise in Achilles injuries. And he revealed that to help stop these injuries, the NBA is now using AI technology. The AI looks at how players move, how much they train, and how they rest. It spots warning signs early. This helps teams give players more rest before they get hurt. View this post on Instagram A post shared by ColorsTV (@colorstv) Silver said too many players have had these injuries lately. One big name is Tyrese Haliburton from the Indiana Pacers. The league believes AI can find risks faster than humans. It can give alerts for each player, so teams can act in time. How AI, players and teams will use this to prevent serious injury The new AI platform gathers data from multiple sources. It tracks wearable sensor readings, performance stats during games, and medical imaging like MRIs. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Live Comfortably: 60m2 prefabricated bungalow for the elderly in El Mouradia Pre Fabricated Homes | Search Ads Search Now Undo Teams upload this data into a machine learning model developed with Stanford University researchers, though the researchers' names were not mentioned. AI then flags early warning signs. For example, if a player's ankle motion changes or recovery time slows, teams get alerted. This can happen days or weeks before a tear might occur. Coaches and trainers receive a dashboard with colored risk levels and can tailor practice workloads accordingly. Many coaches and general managers have welcomed the move. San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich said, 'If this keeps our best players healthy, I'm all in.'
