NFTs and Sports: How and Why?-Ask the expert, Aaron Hawkey, BallerTV

Event Details

BallerTV announced last month that they are utilizing NFTs as a method for student athletes to financially benefit from their name, image and likeness (NIL). Their first NFT drop last month at the Pangos All-American Camp featured as a sports cover story in the New York Times and was a huge success. NFTs for the top players at the camp sold out in minutes, including Jalen Duren, the #1 high school basketball player in the country and projected top pick in the 2023 NBA Draft. Aaron Hawkey, co-founder of BallerTV, will talk about his thoughts and answer your questions about NFTs in the sports world.

You may submit your questions when you register or ask during the event. All questions submitted by Monday, August 2nd at noon will be shared with Aaron Hawkey prior to the event.
