  • The National Basketball Association (NBA) is the third-most valuable sport property in the world by media value, generating over $4bn annually from global media rights. Looking ahead, the league’s historic 11-year, $76bn domestic and international media deals with Disney, NBC, and Amazon, starting in 2025-26, mark a major leap from its current $2.6bn-per-season agreements with Disney and WBD — paving the way for not only significant growth in media rights revenue in years to come, but also a major shakeup in the global media rights market. Maria Kholodova breaks down the figures driving the #NBA’s commercial success, from its domestic and international media rights, to the WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association)’s rising influence in the media landscape. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e8epgEcj

  • Extreme weather is testing the future of outdoor sports, pushing stadium design to evolve. From sweltering heat at Levi’s Stadium to torrential rain at Old Trafford, architects are racing to make venues climate-resilient. FC Barcelona’s and Everton Football Club’s stadiums will aim to withstand everything from Merseyside floods to Catalonia’s rising heat. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia’s 2034 FIFA World Cup plans highlight the growing need for resilient infrastructure in sport, where climate adaptability is becoming paramount.
