NBA television ratings 'unremarkable' after solid start in return

After a strong return Thursday, NBA ratings over the weekend were pretty ordinary.
The NBA restart at Walt Disney World averaged 1.86 million viewers across ABC, ESPN and TNT through Monday, up 14% from the networks’ average before the league suspended its season in March (1.63M). That is despite all of the games co-existing with local RSN coverage in the participating markets.
After night one of the restart jumped 109% over TNT’s season average, weekend games on ESPN and ABC were in line with — or below — the networks’ pre-hiatus norm.
On ABC Sunday, Bucks-Rockets averaged a 1.5 rating and 2.44 million viewers and Blazers-Celtics a 1.1 and 1.66 million — both below the network’s pre-hiatus average of 3.20 million (which includes three Christmas Day games). Bucks-Rockets ranks as the eighth-most watched of ABC’s 16 windows this season and Blazers-Celtics third-to-last.
It is worth noting that the level of households using televisions (HUT) is seven percent lower in July than in March and April, when the season was originally scheduled to conclude.

Nba knew it was losing fans and they are fine with it in order to be on the right side of history.

Being on the side that believes in racial equality is certainly the right side of history.

Almost 4 million people watched the Thursday opening round of the Charles Schwabb Cup, a random tour stop

Nba really isn’t that popular in the states

Wait, you think there are too many black players?

And the vast majority of Americans, including myself, have agreed with this sentiment since the Civil Right’s movements. I’m glad the NBA has decided to join us.

I used to really like the NBA but them playing in a empty bubble seems boring as shite.

I mean 5 million people just watched the Memorial, to say the NBA is beating golf is a false statement.

Since the NBA has returned, how many golf events have beat it in ratings?

I want this to be true. Hell at this point I’d take Johnsonville Cornhole tournaments being the ratings dominant sport if it meant I didn’t have to listen to everyone’s political views about it. Sports have always been a release from the every day mental grind at work/school/home life and that is no longer the case as they shove shite down the average person’s throat when most of us just simply want to unwind and enjoy elite athletes competing at the top of their sport.
