As a testament to the NBA and urban culture, Hennessy, one of the world’s best-selling Cognac and first-ever global Spirit partner of the NBA, announced it will tip off the “Game Never Stops” pop-up court at Slate @ The Row, Kuala Lumpur from now until June 5 (Monday).

Inspired by Hennessy’s journey of progress, this year, Hennessy continues its “Game Never Stops” campaign in Malaysia to celebrate basketball’s cultural influence on and off the court.

Part of this campaign creates a series of iconic basketball court settings around the world, with this iteration taking place in Kuala Lumpur. Hennessy celebrates cultures that drive change and re-draw boundaries, and it is this like-minded attitude that has created the perfect synergy between Hennessy and NBA.
