I don't think it's the cost that's keeping other NBA Teams from purchasing ($100K/year is pennies to an NBA franchise). I suspect its more of a front-office vs coaching thing. Adopting this as part of a teams core prep takes education; Effectively learning how to understand this type of data and apply it in practice over the course of a season.

It should be pennies to an NBA franchise (when they are spending millions on players who don't play). Unfortunately, owners like Robert Sarver and Donald Sterling are notorious for refusing to spend on marginal upgrades like a quality visitors locker room, or a a full support staff. Even Paul Allen has a reputation for refusing to pay for a high quality training staff in Portland - probably a bit undeserved since he seems to spend on other important things and I can't imagine why training staff would be something he ignores. Also, there is a floor for player salaries that must be met.

The analytics vs. coaching issue is a real one too, but don't discount owners being cheap.
