That’s a pretty far reaching espionage. It’s one thing to join another corporation and reveal some inner workings.

It’s another entirely to use your old credentials to hack into a competitors computer systems and continue accessing all of their data.

Although the Knicks also need to be much better with their security.

its not detailed in this piece, but if i remember the original details:

it wasn't old credentials, the employee in question was still employed by the Knicks at the time
consequently there wasn't any hacking done, just usage of the existing log in for a platform called Synergy
Synergy is used by every NBA team and the video-enhanced offering allows for the curation of playlists/clips. the employee in question linked these videos in emails to the Raptors staff (an example was clips around guarding Luka Doncic?)
any team with access to Synergy can recurate these videos, there's just likely legwork in the process (i have no idea what Synergy's ease-of-life features are for transferring user settings/creations to a different team-based account)
