SlamBall returns to ESPN with new rules and big plans for the future

SlamBall is a combination of basketball and football played on trampolines that first gained traction in the 2000s.
After going viral online, SlamBall raised $11 million and will return on ESPN with new rules like a 4-point line.
The relaunched league aims to appeal to young audiences and become a major sports league with city-based franchises.
SlamBall disappeared in the late 2000s but retained a cult following, especially in China.
The new season will take place in Las Vegas and air on ESPN networks, seeking to build on previous momentum.
