Here is a latest look at The NBA Experience at Disney Springs, opening August 12 2019 on the West Side.

Much of the exterior is now complete, with these latest pictures showing that the large black LED billboard is now in place along the full width of the building.

The City Works restaurant that was set to open alongside The NBA Experience has been delayed, and will now open towards the end of the year.

Why not both. Here is what I don't understand. There is a large parking lot and bus area that could be used to build an addition to Disney Springs. If the NBA wants to build an attraction on mostly there dollar, let them. If Dave and Buster's wants to pay for and build one let them. The fit will survive.

No, thanks. Dave and Busters gives me the creeps. I just feel the need to douse myself in chlorine the second I enter the place, and don't get me started on the food service.

I'm glad that something new and creative is going into this space. I hope it works.
Photo update as of Tuesday, April 30, 2019. The installation of the electronic message / video screens above the main entrance is nearing completion.
Tickets are now on sale for The NBA Experience at Disney Springs. Tickets are $34 + tax for adults and $29 + tax for children ages 3-9. You can purchase tickets on Disney’s website:
https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/tickets/nba-experience/

My thoughts: I'm expecting we'll see discounts on this soon enough. I don't know if that's a good price point. Or we'll see it as a ticket option the way DisneyQuest used to be.

So yes, I think this will be good, I don't think they'll get the attendance they want for that price.
oof, wishful thinking on their part at those prices.
oh also, NO re-entry allowed....I bet that will change

Cheaper than DisneyQuest and on par with the Void which is only 20-25 minutes of play. I don't think this is bad pricing at all.
The thing is, the NBA is HUGE overseas. This could be a must see attractions for those outside the US

From my knowledge it has a hardcore, but fairly small fanbase in The UK. It will NOT be more than a curiosity for most Brits.
What's the chance of this being a "plus" option under the Park Hopper Plus ticket? Any idea when/if that would be offered? It has not yet been added to the list of places tickets can be used on the Park ticket webpage.

Agreed! It's not just the entry price.....it's all of the upcharges that they'll hit you with. How much for those 'photoburst' packages!?!
