Twitch has been named the exclusive live streaming partner of USA Basketball, in a deal announced by the governing body and the National Basketball Association.
Starting this summer, the Amazon-owned social video service will stream all USA Men’s National Team exhibition games, select USA Women’s National Team friendly games, and select USA Basketball 3×3 events.
The partnership also includes the 2020 Nike Hoop Summit, as well as coverage of the Men’s and Women’s training camps, and other USA Basketball events.
Following each live broadcast, content will also be available for fans to view on-demand. Terms of the deal were not announced.
The deal is part of the continued relationship between Twitch and NBA-affiliated leagues and partners. Over the past two years, the platform has also streamed NBA G League and NBA 2K League games.
