NBA settles with WBD as it prepares to stream games on Amazon in 2025
Warner Bros. Discovery will settle its lawsuit against the NBA as it reaches a new deal that moves Inside the NBA to ESPN next year.


In July, the NBA chose licensing deals with Amazon’s Prime Video, Disney, and NBCUniversal over TNT. This resulted in a lawsuit from Warner Bros. Discovery that accused the NBA of breach of contract. During the 2025-2026 season, dozens of the NBA’s regular-season and playoff games will stream on Prime Video service, while some games will still appear on ESPN, ABC, and NBC.
Warner Bros. Discovery’s settlement includes the highlight rights to NBA games, which it can use to produce content for TNT Sports, the Bleacher Report, and House of Highlights. “We are pleased to partner with the NBA and Disney/ESPN, and to have solidified long-term rights and revenue for WBD,” Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav said in the press release.
In addition to its agreement with the NBA, Warner Bros. Discovery also struck a deal with ESPN — one of its partners in the Venu sports streaming service, which a federal court blocked. — that will put 15 live college basketball games and 13 college football games each season from the Big 12 on TNT.
Warner Bros. Discovery will retain live NBA rights outside the US for 11 years in the Nordics, Poland, and Latin American countries except Brazil and Mexico.
