Seems worth noting out that Invisible Technologies changed the quote from Harrel in their white paper, probably as a result of the traction it was getting from this article. Here's the new excerpt that clarifies / downplays their input (including a final sentence that no longer makes sense):
"The commercial impact was almost immediate. “Invisible’s computer vision models provided high-quality data that played a key role in validating our 2025 draft analysis,” said Patrick Harrel, VP of Basketball Insights & Analysis with the Charlotte Hornets. “The insights we gained proved incredibly valuable to our decision-making and we are excited to continue to work together.” This win also marked the Hornets’ first-ever trophy and Summer League championship.

This is a great callout. Thank you for pointing this out. We'll issue an update.
Great insight!
