There has been a new development regarding the new NBA rights deal.

In a report by Puck's John Ourand, Amazon will reportedly get the In-Season Tournament and Play-In Tournament as part of its expected deal with the NBA.

There had been rumors about the negotiations that the NBA would sell the rights to the In-Season Tournament, which will be renamed to NBA Cup next season, and the Play-In Tournament to a separate company like Netflix.

In the expected deal, Amazon would also get a conference final every other year and a Saturday night game.

Ourand also reported that ESPN will carry only Wednesday night regular season games in its renewal with the NBA and will drop its Friday slate.
