On May 23, Beijing time, according to the Sports Business Journal, the NBA will finally finalize a media copyright agreement with ESPN, NBC and Amazon totaling more than 7 billion dollars later this week.As TNT failed to win the new copyright agreement, the familiar TNT team will no longer appear in front of the fans (including Buckley, O'Neal, Kenny Smith and Ernie Johnson).
Industry insiders pointed out that ESPN will eventually pay $2.8 billion annually for the league's "A" package, including the NBA finals, a regional final, weekly prime time games, WNBA and possible international copyright sharing.
The "B" package proposed by NBC is estimated to be worth 2.6 billion dollars annually, which may include the "American Basketball Night" on Sunday night after the NFL season, two golden time windows every week, one division semi-final and one division final.
Amazon's contract is expected to be between 1.8 billion and 2 billion dollars, which may include the mid season championship, play offs, the first round of the playoffs, WNBA and international copyright.
Later, Keith Smith updated the social media and talked about interesting figures related to 7 billion copyright——
The NBA receives $7 billion in media copyright fees every year, and is likely to lock in a 10% salary cap increase every season from the 2025-26 season (that is, the maximum salary cap can be increased).
If so, the salary ceiling for 2028-29 season will exceed $200 million, and the maximum annual salary that accounts for 35% of that year is expected to reach $72 million.What is the salary for the fifth year of this maximum contract?US $95 million.What is the total value of this maximum contract?419 million dollars in five years!
It has to be said that the new stars of the NBA have caught up with the good times. It is not a problem for young people like Edwards and Wenbanyama to earn more than 100 million yuan in the future.
