Streaming platform Amazon Prime Video has further upgraded its live sports catalog in India after locking in a deal with the women's National Basketball Association (WNBA).

We are confident that the world-class, friction-free live experience of the WNBA games on Amazon Prime Video will delight the growing base of basketball fans in India.”

Sunny Malik, Head of Global Content and Media Distribution, NBA India said, "We are pleased to offer WNBA games to our fans in India through Amazon Prime Video. The collaboration will provide easy access to the games, expand our visibility and reach in the region and educate fans further about one of the most popular sports leagues in the world.”
