The creation was revealed on August 10 as part of this year's MURAL Festival.

"This project produced by MURAL is presented by Hennessy and the NBA, in collaboration with the neighbourhood of Rosemont La-Petite-Patrie," MURAL organizers told MTL Blog.

"It is also the first project of the 'Hidden Court' campaign, which brings together Hennessy and the NBA to finance the artistic transformation and revitalization of the facilities of many public basketball courts around the world."
