ATLANTA — The Atlanta Hawks’ DeAndre’ Bembry and Thabo Sefolosha were among the first NBA players who ever recorded using the Snapchat Spectacles on an NBA floor when they did so during pre-game warmups in two separate games last month.
In an effort “to do something special,” in Bembry’s words, the Hawks’ social media team asked them both to record themselves dunking and taking shots using the Spectacles for the club’s Instagram feed.
“They just wanted to give people a different perception of things,” Bembry said. “Some people can’t dunk, so we tried to get a different perspective for the fans.
