The NBA TV offering will also continue to be available on an authenticated basis for fans who get NBA TV from a pay TV provider.
NBA Digital recently debuted a new NBA TV franchise, Center Court, which features a series of 20 live NBA games with enhanced viewing options throughout the 2019-20 season.

Alternative streaming options for Center Court games are accessible through the NBA App and NBA.com for all fans who get NBA TV from a pay TV provider or with an NBA TV direct-to-consumer subscription. Those options include: Backcourt streams featuring Second Spectrum technology, with statistical overlays on the game feed, and Frontcourt streams incorporating alternative audio options with rotating groups of NBA influencers.
Innovation has always been at the core of our NBA Digital partnership and the launch of this direct to consumer product, paired with new content initiatives, will provide NBA fans even greater opportunities to engage with NBA TV and our collective portfolio of brands, said Tina Shah, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Turner Sports. As sports consumption continues to evolve, we will continue to develop new opportunities for fans to access and engage with premium NBA content.
