The historic NBA x NBL Melbourne Series will be broadcast live on Prime Video, Network 10 and NBA League Pass.
The historic NBA x NBL Melbourne Series, featuring the New Orleans Pelicans, Melbourne United and South East Melbourne Phoenix, will be broadcast live on Amazon Prime Video, Network 10 and NBA League Pass.
The series will see the Pelicans, headlined by NBA superstar Zion Williamson, play United on Friday, October 3 (7.40pm AEST) and Phoenix on Sunday, October 5 (2.10pm AEDT) at Rod Laver Arena.
As official broadcast partners of the NBAxNBL Melbourne Series, Prime Video and Network 10 will also deliver exclusive programming around both games, including pre-game shows and social content, while NBA League Pass is available in Australia through the NBA App and as an add-on subscription via Prime Video.
The NBAxNBL Melbourne Series will build on prior collaborations between the two entities that began in 2016, as seven NBL teams have travelled to the United States to play 24 pre-season games against NBA teams.
The NBA has also twice collaborated with the NBL to host Basketball Without Borders, the NBA and FIBA’s global basketball development and community outreach program, in Australia (2016 in Melbourne and 2024 in Perth).
To date, 11 players from the NBL’s Next Stars program have been drafted directly into the NBA, including Brisbane’s Rocco Zikarsky (Minnesota) and Sydney’s Alex Toohey (Golden State) earlier this year.
As well as the two fixtures, the Pelicans will also be hosting an open training session on Thursday, October 2, before a Fan Night and Luncheon on Saturday and Sunday respectively.
