“As the CEO of the League, and as an American, I am profoundly excited about the potential these collaborations hold, not only for our players and teams but for basketball fans worldwide.”

This partnership signifies another step forward for the League as it aims to expand its global footprint and grow an international audience.

New England sports fans can catch today’s game – Manchester Giants v Bristol Flyers – on NESN, with coverage starting from 2:30pm EDT.
