In a shocking development, it was revealed that the National Basketball Association (NBA)'s official Instagram account had been compromised. This happened after the account posted a promotion for a Solana [SOL]-based memecoin called $NBA Coin, urging followers to join the community and buy the token. The post included a cryptocurrency contract address, which users could use to identify and trade the token. However, the promotional language and the fact that comments were later disabled raised suspicions that the account had been hacked. Adding to the skepticism, the post was subsequently deleted, and the account returned to sharing regular basketball content.
