Vision Pro owners can catch live Lakers NBA games in Immersive Video starting 10 January

• 10 January, 11:30 am – Milwaukee Bucks vs. Los Angeles Lakers
• 6 February, 11 am – Philadelphia 76ers vs. Los Angeles Lakers
• 21 February, 11 am – Los Angeles Clippers vs. Los Angeles Lakers
• 6 March, 11 am – Los Angeles Lakers vs. Denver Nuggets

The selection of games is tantalising since it’ll see LeBron and Doncic go up against the likes of Giannis of the Bucks, and the duo of Kawhi and Harden of the Clippers.

For those new to Immersive Video, it’s a new format developed specifically for the Apple Vision Pro that delivers 8K visuals, spatial audio, and strong depth cues to create the illusion that the viewer is in the midst of the action.

I’ve said in the past that Immersive Video as a format lends itself exceedingly well to live sports broadcasts, and now we are finally going to get a taste of it. It’ll be interesting to see how owners will react and if Apple will make this a permanent fixture for the Vision Pro.
