The NBA on ESPN Radio is a broadcast of National Basketball Association (NBA) games on the ESPN Radio network. The program began on January 21, 1996 and the current contract runs through the extra season.[1]
Coverage overview
The NBA on ESPN Radio broadcasts games on a weekly basis, many more than once. Game coverage includes:
Mid-season weeknight games, with varying days on a week-by-week basis
NBA Cup games, including select group stage games, the semi-finals and the final
As of 2022, the NBA on ESPN Radio is part of ESPN Radio's main lineup, instead of in an opt-in/opt-out basis by ESPN Radio affiliates like in previous years (although affiliates retain the ability to opt out of broadcasts involving their in-market teams). It is also available in several regions outside the U.S. It can also be heard on SiriusXM satellite radio.
Most NBA on ESPN Radio games can be heard on mobile devices and connected televisions via the ESPN app as well as many other radio apps, including TuneIn and iHeartRadio (mostly from ESPN Radio affiliates streaming on iHeartRadio).
