Courtside advertising provides a dynamic medium to display both a brand and a message. The advertising, which spans 24 continuous metres along the length of the court, provides many different options to display text and images.

Due to the size of the basketball court, one major benefit of courtside advertising is that there is always some portion of the advertising being featured in the broadcast arc.

Another benefit is that messages can be changed on a game by game basis or multiple messages can be displayed throughout the same game.
