Rights agreement grows IMG ARENA’s global basketball roster with 214 matches per season
IMG ARENA, a leading sports data business for the betting, media and professional sectors, has secured the exclusive worldwide betting data and streaming rights for British Basketball League (BBL).

The BBL and its competitions are an exciting addition to our portfolio, increasing our offering of premier-level basketball from key territories around the world.”
