Jul 25, 2024 4:36 AM

07:01 AM EDT, 07/25/2024 (MT Newswires) -- The National Basketball Association said late Wednesday that it has renewed its partnership with Walt Disney ( DIS ) and signed new agreements with Comcast ( CMCSA )-owned (CMCSA) NBCUniversal and Amazon ( AMZN ) .

NBA games will air on ABC/ESPN ( DIS ), NBC/Peacock, and Prime Video, starting from the 2025-26 season through the 2035-36 season, the NBA said. The NBA App will act as a universal access point, directing fans to all national games on Disney ( DIS ), NBCU and Amazon ( AMZN ) platforms, the NBA added.

The new agreements are estimated to be worth around $76 billion, multiple media outlets reported.

The NBA has turned down an offer from Warner Bros. Discovery ( WBD )-owned (WBD) TNT Sports because it did not meet the terms of Amazon Prime Video's offer, several news outlets reported Wednesday.
