Crocmedia has today announced it will broadcast live NBA games on Australian radio, a first for the country.
Across 1116 SEN and 1377 SEN+, a selection of games will be broadcasted across Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
The 2019 NBA Finals will also be broadcast across 1116 SEN and 1377 SEN+.
Pacific Star Network Managing Director and Crocmedia’s Chief Executive Officer Craig Hutchison said the team was excited to deliver the offering to Australian basketball fans.
“The NBA’s popularity here has reached unprecedented levels thanks to our home-grown talent including Ben Simmons, Patty Mills, Joe Ingles and Thon Maker,” Hutchison said.
“We can’t wait to bring all the excitement of the sport – delivered with our own local flavour to Australian fans – culminating in the NBA Playoffs in April.”
The coverage tips off on Friday February 15th with Cameron Luke and Felix von Hofe hosting the coverage of the Charlotte Hornets versus Orlando Magic game.
