27:36Now PlayingNBA fans, you’re about to see a whole lot more of Kenny Beecham. The founder of basketball media brand Enjoy Basketball first broke through in 2011 streaming NBA 2k games on Twitch. Since then, he has built a YouTube channel with over 700,000 followers, hosted altcasts on NBA TV and ESPN and interviewed Adam Silver. In October 2025, Kenny and Enjoy signed their biggest deal yet: a partnership with NBC Sports to produce original NBA programming, the network’s first partnership with a creator-led media company.
In this episode of The Deal, Kenny tells Jason and Alex why his appeal is based on the fact that he is “just a guy from Chicago.” He also shares how a cold email and getting stranded in a blizzard helped him close the deal with NBC. Kenny also explains how the YouTube “Adpocalypse” helped him build a basketball media juggernaut, and why a show about NBA wives and girlfriends is such a hit.
