NBA Returns On StarTimes Via ESPN

– NBA 2019/20 season will resume on Thursday on StarTimes

– Its resumption is coming five months after it was postponed due to COVID-19 pandemic

– The game will be resuming without a live audience to maintain social distancing

The NBA 2019/20 season is set to resume today July 30 after nearly five months break caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The live basketball is set to return on StarTimes via ESPN.

After the coronavirus postponed the NBA season, these NBA games will be unlike any previous year with social distancing requirements keeping fans away and the action taking center stage at the ESPN Wide World of Sports complex, inside Disney World in Orlando, Florida.

Only the best 22 of the league’s 30 teams will participate while each team will play eight games to finish the regular season.

From these, the top seven teams in each conference will advance, with the final eighth seed in each conference being determined by a potential play-in tournament before the traditional 16-team playoffs.

Speaking on the resumption of the NBA season, StarTimes Regional Marketing Director Mr. Aldrine Nsubuga said, “We are excited to add more sports offering for our subscribers. Basketball lovers in Kenya can now look forward to action coming back on their screens through the ESPN channel.

“Also, non-subscribers can also watch live sports, sought-after TV channels and over 2000 video-on-demand content for as low as N400 weekly, with an option to subscribe with their MTN airtime, via the StarTimes ON mobile app.”
