There will also be daily updates on the Sky Sport 24 channel, two weekly shows (Basket Room Europa and EuroLeague Mixtape), and news reports on the skysport.it website as well as on Sky Sport’s official social profiles.

Paulius Motiejunas, Euroleague Basketball chief executive, said: “Finalizing these broadcast agreements with Sky and DAZN guarantees that the best of European basketball will be delivered to our passionate fans in Italy.

“We are excited to maintain our partnerships, providing comprehensive coverage and bringing the excitement of Euroleague Basketball to Italian homes.” Sportcal
