Over 250 live NBA games coming to TNT Sports

16 October 2023

TNT Sports and the National Basketball Association (NBA) have announced a multiyear broadcast deal meaning Basketball fans will need to change channel to keep up with NBA coverage this season.

  • TNT Sports will be able to show a total of over 250 live games in the UK and Ireland.
  • This season’s coverage starts 24th October.
  • Sky Sports was the previous UK/Ireland rights holder.

In addition to at least nine games during each week of the regular season, TNT Sports will broadcast the league’s marquee events, including select games from the inaugural NBA In-Season Tournament, the NBA Playoffs, the Finals, NBA All-Star and the NBA Draft. 

Throughout the 2023-24 season, TNT Sports will also air more than 40 weekend games in primetime as part of NBA Saturdays and NBA Sundays. These will feature games starting as early as 6pm UK time. 

In total, over 250 games will be shown by TNT Sports as a result of this deal in the coming years.

Streaming coverage

Discovery+ will become the streaming home of the NBA in the UK. It will offer live and on-demand coverage of all games and programming included within the TNT Sports – NBA deal.

TNT Sports content is available through the Discovery+ Premium Plan.

Corporate comment

Trojan Paillot, Vice President, Sports Rights Acquisitions and Syndication, Warner Bros. Discovery Sports Europe said:

“Fans watching basketball on our platforms will have much to look forward to, and we’re privileged to be able to lean on the outstanding foundation of TNT’s broadcasting of the NBA in the United States for over 30 years. When TNT Sports launched in July, we reaffirmed that premium rights were a priority for us, and the NBA falls squarely into that category. To have the best players in the world, competing in one of the toughest and entertaining competitions in world sport, is extremely exciting as we further extend our proposition in the UK and Ireland.”

Elsa Memmi, NBA Europe and Middle East Vice President, Global Media Distribution added:

“We are thrilled to build on our long-standing collaboration with TNT in the US to bring live NBA games and programming to our passionate fans in the UK and Ireland. With regular weekend games in primetime, extensive coverage of our marquee events, and original programming and highlights, fans now have a new home for the NBA.”
