Earlier this month, News Corp Australia launched a marketing campaign for its inaugural SuperCoach NBL, the new fantasy sports platform for the National Basketball League, featuring star Australian basketball player Josh Giddey.
The SuperCoach NBL campaign features the tagline Stop Dribbling, Start Playing and will be running across News Corp Australia’s state and regional mastheads in digital and print, as well as radio, television and social media.
Giddey, who was catapulted into NBA superstardom as pick number six for the Oklahoma City Thunder after making an impact playing NBL for the Adelaide 36ers as an 18-year-old in 2020-21, will also provide a series of columns to SuperCoach NBL and manage his own team in supercoach.com.au.
News Corp Australia’s head of Fantasy Sports Paul Zines said he was excited to launch the company’s first SuperCoach NBL campaign and introduce Giddey to the SuperCoach team.
“SuperCoach is Australia’s most popular and prominent fantasy sports franchise and we’re thrilled to be partnering with the NBL and extending the brand to millions of Australians who love basketball,” Zines said.
“Having Australian NBA star Josh Giddey on board is fantastic. Community is a big part of the success of SuperCoach and we’re delighted Josh will also play along and maintain his own team, as well as share his predictions and SuperCoach secrets throughout the season.”
