Professional basketball player Matt Mooney (Cavaliers, Knicks, Overseas) is in Turkey playing in one of the best leagues in Europe. When he is not on the court, he building the next generation of technology for the game with AthletIQ. Matt and team have leveraged AI to accurate contest shots and collect accurate data on areas such as shooting form, statistics, and more.
