Episode 401: Stop Losing Winnable Games: How Roy Weathers and Anova Sports Are Bringing the “Moneyball” Revolution to Basketball

Welcome back to the Championship Vision Basketball Podcast, where we talk with coaches, leaders, innovators, and difference-makers who are helping move the game of basketball forward.

Tonight, we're going to take a look at what could be one of the biggest changes coming to basketball coaching: the use of artificial intelligence in scouting, analytics, and game preparation.

Every coach knows the challenge. We watch hours of film. We break down opponents. We study tendencies. We look at statistics. And then we have to take all of that information and answer one important question:

What do we actually need to do to win the game?

My guest tonight believes technology can help coaches answer that question faster and better.

Roy Weathers is the founder of Anova Sports, an AI-powered basketball platform designed to help coaches transform data, film, tendencies, and matchup information into actionable scouting and game-planning decisions.

I had the opportunity to spend quite a bit of time with Roy at our Legends Coaching Clinic, and what impressed me wasn't simply the technology. It was his vision. Roy wants to bring the type of analytics and decision-making tools normally associated with higher levels of basketball into the hands of high-school coaches across the country.

And tonight, we're not just going to talk about it.

We're going to show you.

Roy is going to take us inside Anova Sports, share his screen, and demonstrate how a coach can use the system to scout an opponent, identify tendencies, develop Keys to Victory, analyze matchups, and turn information into an actual game plan.

So if you're listening on the audio version of Championship Vision, I encourage you to check out the video version of this episode as well, because you're going to want to see this technology in action.

We're going to talk about basketball, scouting, technology, AI, coaching—and what the future of game preparation may look like.
