I've been told this is supposed to be the forum to find the answer to my question.

I really want to know the name of the guitar song in this basketball video. Name of the song and the artist would be nice.

This really is the wrong forum for that kind of song (which some might refer to as "fakemenco", as opposed to real flamenco). Here's some of the real stuff to check out -- a thousand times better than the music in the background of that NBA clip:

Thanks! Those were some nice songs. I still want to know the name of the song in the basketball video. It seems like nobody knows anything about that song for whatever reason.

Chapatrio, I hope that if you like the music in the video you provided, you weren't put off by being told that somebody else's music was "a thousand times better" than what you liked. The only thing that accurately could be said was if your music was or wasn't "real" flamenco, and yours was not real flamenco. Someone with a dark sense of humor, having listened to many decades of the art of flamenco, and especially prizing the flamenco of the first three-quarters of the 20th Century, might actually label all of the videos offered as "Spanish elevator music" and not "real flamenco". No better or worse as music though--just not accurately identified. If you prefer your music over theirs or mine, that's just the way it is; it's just so hard to prove that one should prefer music A to music B. Hope that helps.

It's not a real song, some producer said "We need some Spanishy music for this." So they paid some studio dude to write something just for this commercial. I'm sure it took him an afternoon and most of the time was mixing and mastering, the music itself is insanely generic.
Maybe Ben Woods wrote it, on "all strings considered" he was saying he wrote a bunch of stuff like this to sell for commercial use and just named them, generic rumba #1, generic rumba #2 etc lolol

That's exactly what I thought, I doubt very much whether the music here exists outside this commercial.
