Suns have been using a cutting edge analytics system...

in their new state of the art practice facility. Wouldn't be surprised if KY is going for something similar. They set up hundreds of cameras around the practice court, the weight room, etc, and feed all the data to a central analytics system that gives real-time data on shooting motion, player movement, etc.

They can use it to detect, for example, weakness in the left knee based on how a player moves. Coaches would then use that data to develop a player-specific strength and conditioning program to improve flexibility and stamina in the knee or whatever.

Improving shot mechanics are an obvious use case as well. Dovetails nicely with KY's emphasis on player development.

Skip to 1:50 for a very quick look at how the 150 cameras look installed:

For those interested, here's a more in-depth discussion of the tech from the vendor (12 min video):
