The NBA All Star Game, which kicks off this week, is one of the biggest sporting events of the year, and the NBA will be broadcasting it live on ESPN3 this year.
ESPN3 is a new streaming service that is powered by the NBA’s digital rights deal with DirecTV, but it has had mixed reception in the past.
The NBA has had trouble reaching fans, with viewership of the game in the NBA Network’s prime times being significantly lower than other live events.
In 2015, the league had an audience of just over 40 million, according to the Nielsen company.
In 2016, it was slightly higher, with the league’s total audience averaging over 39 million viewers.
The viewership on TNT averaged just over 10 million viewers, with a total viewership of just under 19 million.
That’s about half the viewership on the ESPN3 broadcast.
ESPN’s live broadcast of the All-star game on TNT will begin at 10 p.m.
ET on Monday.
Here are all the highlights of the 2017 All-Stars game from this past week.
Celtics vs. Warriors The Celtics have a 1-0 lead in the East after their loss to the Heat on Friday.
Golden State The Warriors have won five straight and six of seven.
Thunder The Thunder are riding a three-game winning streak, winning four of five, with their only loss coming on Sunday to the Mavericks.
Jazz The Jazz are 10-0 this season, and they’re coming off a 99-82 win over the Spurs. Grizzlies The Grizzlies have won four of their last five games, and their last loss came on Friday to the Jazz.
Kings The Kings have won eight of their past 10 games, with four of those victories coming on the road.
Pacers The Pacers have won three straight, and have won nine of their previous 10.
Magic The Magic have won seven of their 12 games and are 10th in the Eastern Conference.
Timberwolves The Timberwolves have won six of their seven games and have scored 107.8 points per game.
Nets The Nets have won all three of their games and had a 97-93 win over Golden State on Friday night.
