Dear stakeholders, players, coaches, administrators, basketball enthusiasts and everyone contributing to the growth of Nigerian basketball, Most of you know me as the media guy, the stats guy, or someone who is constantly documenting, analysing and telling the stories of our game. Over the years, my involvement in basketball has allowed me to see the sport from different perspectives, understand its challenges and appreciate the opportunities that exist within our ecosystem. Today, I am introducing something different. I am proud to introduce RIMCITY — "Own Your Court" a Nigerian born basketball gaming franchise i recently co-founded with a vision that extends beyond gaming. The idea came from a question I have often considered: How do we get more people interested in basketball, including those who have never played the sport, watched a game, or felt connected to the basketball community? I believe gaming can be part of the answer. RIMCITY is being developed around Nigerian basketball culture, familiar courts, local environments, and interactive experiences that allow people to engage with the game in a different way. Imagine someone who has never stepped into a basketball arena becoming interested in the sport because they can virtually play on a court they recognise in their own city. That experience could spark curiosity, create familiarity and eventually lead them to follow actual games, support teams, recognise players and become fans of basketball. That is the bigger idea behind RIMCITY. We are not just building a basketball game; we are exploring a new way to develop basketball audiences. For me, this is a natural extension of my work in the ecosystem. I have spent time documenting the game, tracking its numbers, telling its stories and creating platforms for basketball conversations. With RIMCITY, I am taking another step in moving from documenting the ecosystem to building a product that could contribute to its growth. We currently just rolled out a playable prototype stage with regular basketball player/coach activity featured in it, and there is still work to be done. I understand that building a sustainable gaming franchise requires time, collaboration, technical development and a clear understanding of the people it intends to serve. This is why I am introducing RIMCITY to the basketball ecosystem at this stage. I see opportunities for collaboration with players, coaches, clubs, leagues, the federation, sponsors, brands, media organisations, e-sports community and other stakeholders who share an interest in growing the game and extending visibility. There is potential to connect basketball, interactive entertainment, commercial partnerships and audience development in ways we are only beginning to explore. My ambition is for @RimCityNG to become a distinctly Nigerian basketball gaming experience with the potential to reach audiences across Africa and beyond. I am sharing this not as a finished product, but as a vision we are working to bring to life. I welcome constructive conversations, partnerships and contributions from people who understand the value of innovation in our sport. I have spent years telling basketball stories. Now, I am working on creating a new way for people to experience one. Welcome to RIMCITY, OWN YOUR COURT.
