TNT Sports Partners with Mediapro for League’s Second Season

The second season of the Women’s 3-on-3 league Unrivaled is gearing up to be even better than the first. With Mediapro returning to support at the Sephora Arena in Miami and TNT Sports back on board as the exclusive broadcaster, fans can expect an even more exciting and polished production.

Chris Brown, VP of technology and operations at Warner Bros. Discovery, shared that this year’s production has been fine-tuned based on feedback from last season. The goal was to enhance every aspect of the broadcast and create a seamless viewing experience for fans at home.

Behind the scenes, TNT Sports has invested in new technologies and initiatives to elevate the viewers’ experience. From adding an RF Steadicam on the sidelines to increasing access to players and coaches, the network is upping the ante this season. The technical crew has also been specifically selected for their in-depth knowledge of basketball, ensuring they capture all the action and emotion on the court.

Last season, the league focused on promoting behind-the-scenes access, but this year, the goal is to deepen the connection with fans through technology and a more immersive viewing experience. From capturing player arrivals to miking the coaches during games, Unrivaled is committed to bringing fans closer to the action.

To complement the enhanced production, TNT Sports has developed a new graphics package for this season. The scorebug and insert graphics now reflect the color scheme of each team, adding a vibrant and dynamic element to the broadcast.

Mediapro, the broadcasting partner, has also increased its involvement this season. With a year of experience under their belt, Mediapro and TNT Sports have fine-tuned their collaboration to enhance the lighting and overall production quality at Sephora Arena. Additionally, a content pipeline has been established to facilitate seamless communication between the Florida venue and the Atlanta-based production teams.

As the Unrivaled league prepares for its first competition outside of Sephora Arena, all eyes are on Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia. With a rich basketball history and a passionate fan base, Philadelphia was the perfect choice for the league’s on-the-road debut. Fans can look forward to a doubleheader at Xfinity Mobile Arena featuring some exciting matchups between top teams.

With a commitment to constant improvement and a focus on delivering the best possible experience for viewers, Unrivaled, Mediapro, and TNT Sports are setting the stage for a memorable second season. Fans can expect nothing but the best as the league continues to grow and evolve.
