Nba tv grabs record ratings for summer league coverage

It shows people have some interest in the NBA even in the off-season

Are basketball fans really interested in the NBA’s Summer League, in which there are a few rookies and young veterans that will make it to the opening day roster?? If NBA TV’s record-setting ratings are any indication, the answer to that question is pretty clear. NBA TV averaged 110,000 viewers for their Summer League coverage, a number which represents an impressive 9% growth compared to last year.

NBA TV has a ton of positives to point to from this year’s Summer League coverage, but perhaps the most impressive is the fact they drew their largest audience for a Summer League game telecast (277,000 total viewers) and had their most-watched Championship game ever (144,000 total viewers).

Another noteworthy tidbit is that day viewership of Summer League grew by 7%.
