With interest in basketball soaring in Australia, BINGE will make the opening episode of the new hit series based on the professional and personal lives of the 1980s Los Angeles Lakers – one of sports’ most revered and dominant dynasties – available to stream on Kayo Freebies on the eve of the 2022 NBA Playoffs.

 

The 10-episode drama series, produced by Adam McKay (Succession, Step Brothers), streaming on BINGE (new episodes dropping weekly), is based on the book “Showtime: Magic, Kareem, Riley and the Los Angeles Lakers Dynasty of the 1980s” written by Jeff Pearlman, and stars John C. Reilly as Jerry Buss.

BINGE Executive Director, Alison Hurbert-Burns, said: “This show has all the ingredients. It’s packed with drama, based on one of the biggest and most universally loved sporting dynasties of all time and is created by and stars the biggest names in TV.

 

“We know Australians are a sports loving nation, and with the growing interest around basketball, and the NBA, we wanted to work with Kayo as the streaming home of sport, to help take this show to fans around the country. And what better time to do it, as people go on Easter break and have more time to watch their favourite sports, and shows, and if they love episode 1 they can watch the entire series on BINGE.”

 

Kayo Sports Executive Director, Cate Hefele, said: “As the go-to destination for streaming the world’s best sports, we are seeing huge interest in basketball on Kayo, for both our domestic competitions and international leagues. NBA viewership has grown 31 percent this year, and we expect even further growth as the Playoffs tip off this weekend, with ESPN on Kayo the place to watch the NBA Playoffs plus every game live of the NBA Conference Finals and NBA Finals.

 

“So we are thrilled to bring to our basketball-loving fans the first episode of this global hit drama series, on Kayo Freebies in collaboration with BINGE.

 

“We introduced Kayo Freebies to provide greater access to sports and expand audiences for selected events and content. This special offer will allow basketball fans who might not subscribe to BINGE the access to watch the first episode of this popular show.”
