Warner Bros. Discovery’s four-month legal scuffle with the NBA has concluded.

The TNT Sports parent company has settled its lawsuit against the NBA, as first reported by the Wall Street Journal and confirmed to Front Office Sports by a source with knowledge of the situation.

Perhaps even more importantly, Inside the NBA—TNT’s popular studio show featuring Ernie Johnson, Shaquille O’Neal, Kenny Smith, and Charles Barkley—will live on as part of a separate deal worked out between WBD and ESPN, according to The Wall Street Journal, which reported that the show will air on ESPN regularly throughout the season once the new NBA rights package starts next season. TNT would also reportedly license select content from ESPN.

The hosts will reportedly be able to continue working on other Turner properties as well. Barkley inked a 10-year, $210 million contract extension with TNT in 2022.

Does this mean Shaq can be a Gameday Guest Picker now?

Barkley


He seemed to be all in with the people he worked with at TNT, I don’t see all of those people keeping a job.

TNT is licensing the show to ESPN. Same folks will produce the show.

They need to adopt the Manning Cast format. Shaq and Charles would be awesome.

ESPN is desperate to make the nba more popular but there’s no saving it.

The product is trash and the players are very unlikable. Too many games and no jeopardy until the playoffs start
