The new system features 65 percent more LED screen real estate than the current scoreboard. Once installed, the Kinetic 4K scoreboard will feature more than 6,600 square feet of 4mm LED video technology -- which will be the most in any arena that hosts both NBA and NHL games.
The scoreboard is part of a $250 million multi-year transformation to Wells Fargo Center that started in 2017.
