The MP & Silva agency has agreed a one-year partnership with the NBA to distribute programming from the North American basketball league across selected territories in Latin America.

Under the terms of the new agreement, MP & Silva will distribute NBA free-to-air television programming to Belize, Bolivia, Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Paraguay and Peru.
