NBC purchase of NBA TV rights could end Charles Barkley's San Antonio reign of terror
Speculation is growing that three media giants are close to obtaining the NBA's television rights, meaning San Antonio residents may no longer be subjected to as many jabs by TNT basketball commentator Charles Barkley. NBC, Disney, and Amazon are close to finalizing an $8 billion deal for the TV rights for NBA regular season, playoffs and finals games, The Sports Business Journal reports. Sources told the publication that an agreement could be announced in coming days or weeks. If such a deal materializes, it would likely bring a final curtain to TNT's popular Inside the NBA basketball commentary show, host Charles Barkley told Sirius XM this week.
