Amazon will broadcast an NBA doubleheader on Black Friday following its coverage of an afternoon NFL game between the Chicago Baers and Philadelphia Eagles.
“This is going to be the greatest Friday in sports,” said Charissa Thompson, host for Amazon’s Thursday Night Football, during an upfront presentation in New York to advertisers. Amazon's announcing teams for both the NFL and NBA appeared on stage together.
Amazon will start Year 1 of a new 11-year deal with the NBA to broadcast the league.
