WMYD-TV & Scripps Sports to Air 5 Detroit Pistons Games in 2025
January 10, 2025
The first game aired January 9 when the Pistons hosted the Golden State Warriors.
Last April, the Pistons aired five games on TV20 Detroit and saw viewership increases for each game.
“Partnering once again with Scripps Sports and TV-20 presents a great opportunity to give more fans a way to watch the Pistons and connect with our young players," said Richard Haddad, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer for the Detroit Pistons. "We thank Scripps Sports and TV-20 for their continued support and our partners at FanDuel Sports Network Detroit for their long-standing commitment and award-winning production."
“We are glad the Pistons found value in our partnership last year,” said Brian Lawlor, president of Scripps Sports. “As we have said often, our goal is to help teams and leagues reach the largest audiences possible. We appreciate the Pistons working with us last year and coming to us again. It’s a win for their fans.”
This season’s five-game slate will be available for local over the air distribution as part of the NBA’s agreement with Diamond Sports Group, the owner of FanDuel Sports Network Detroit. TV-20 Detroit will again use the FanDuel Sports Network Detroit production team and on-air crew of Michigan Sports Hall of Famer George Blaha, former Pistons and MSU standout Greg Kelser and courtside reporters Johnny Kane or Natalie Kerwin.
