Warner Bros. Discovery is taking legal action against the NBA less than 48 hours after the league announced it's rejection of the company's matching bid for media rights.

Once the 2024-25 NBA season ends, TNT will no longer hold the broadcasting rights to NBA games. Earlier this week, the league rejected TNT's offer to match Amazon's bid. But less than 48 hours after the announcement, Warner Bros. Discovery , TNT's parent company, decided to pursue legal action against the league. The company filed a lawsuit under seal in New York County Supreme Court on Friday.

' 'Our new global media agreements with Disney, NBCUniversal and Amazon will maximize the reach and accessibility of NBA games for fans in the United States and around the world,' Silver said in a statement. 'These partners will distribute our content across a wide range of platforms and help transform the fan experience over the next decade.
