BBL commercial director Bob Hope said: "This is a hugely exciting first step towards our goal of bringing British basketball to fans worldwide.

"I would like to thank all parties involved who have worked both hard and selflessly to pull this ground-breaking collaboration together.

"Not only will the partnership give fans the opportunity of watching live games on their PCs but also on their tablets and Smartphones, and all for free.

"This, coupled with accessibility worldwide, was for us, an important element of this project."
