Sportradar and Brazil’s LNB Team Up to Elevate Basketball

Sportradar has entered into a multi-year agreement with Liga Nacional de Basquete (LNB), Brazil’s top basketball league, to drive growth, enhance data capabilities, and ensure match integrity. The partnership grants Sportradar exclusive rights to audiovisual betting, gaming, and data distribution for all LNB competitions, including the NBB Caixa, Copa Super 8, and Liga Ouro.

The collaboration introduces LNB to Sportradar‘s Synergy portfolio, featuring Synergy Stats for real-time data analytics and Synergy Coaching, an AI-driven video tool to improve team strategy, scouting, and player performance analysis. These tools are expected to elevate the league’s competitive standards.

Match integrity is a priority, with Sportradar implementing its Universal Fraud Detection System (UFDS AI) to monitor the 620+ matches annually for signs of corruption or match-fixing. Additionally, the company will host integrity seminars for athletes, referees, and officials to promote transparency.

Sergio Floris, Managing Director Brazil at Sportradar, stated, “We are delighted to partner with the LNB and support the next phase of growth for basketball in Brazil. Sportradar already has a strong presence in the country through football and volleyball, and we’ve long anticipated welcoming Brazil’s premier basketball league into our portfolio. Together, we aim to elevate the league through innovation, data, and integrity.”

Rodrigo Montoro, President of the LNB, added, “This partnership is transformative. Sportradar’s global leadership in innovation, data, and integrity will accelerate Brazilian basketball’s development, positioning us competitively both domestically and internationally over the next four years.”

The agreement further solidifies Sportradar‘s influence in Brazil’s sports ecosystem, following its partnerships with the Brazilian Football and Volleyball Confederations. With basketball now included, the company covers all three major sports pillars in the country, reinforcing its commitment to growth and integrity.
