The collab is here to stay
The NBA or National Basketball Association and vivo have announced a multi-year marketing partnership. vivo is once again the Official Smartphone of the NBA in the Philippines.
Dynamic Duo
Just like many player-tandems on the hardcourt like LeBron and Anthony Davis, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, Steph Curry and Klay Thompson, and many more, the NBA x vivo tandem is one we should be excited about.

The smartphone maker will also return as an official partner of NBA 3X Philippines presented by Mountain Dew. The tournament will take place later this year.
Closer NBA and vivo collaboration
Under the new agreement, select vivo stores will feature dedicated NBA sections. These will display vivo smartphones streaming NBA games and programming on NBA League Pass. vivo will also launch promotions for fans to win NBA prizes. The two will also co-develop content for the NBA’s localized Facebook and TikTok pages in the Philippines.
“Our passion for innovation extends beyond the confines of technology, and we recognize that sports provide an ideal platform to bring communities together and inspire positive change in the way we live our lives,” said the vivo Philippines management.
Fans in the Philippines can shop for official NBA merchandise at the NBA Stores at SM Megamall and SM Mall of Asia and at NBAStore.com.ph. For all the latest NBA news and updates, fans in the Philippines can visit www.nba.com, download the NBA App, and follow the NBA on Facebook, X, and TikTok.
