North Star Network Takes Over BasketUSA and BasketEurope Operations

The North Star Network (NSN), a global sports media beast, is throwing down some major moves in the realm of basketball coverage. They've snatched up two heavyweight players in the French-speaking market—BasketUSA.com and BasketEurope.com—and these platforms are now part of NSN's shiny portfolio.

Good to Know- Both BasketUSA and BasketEurope will maintain their editorial teams.- BasketUSA has been covering NBA and international basketball since 1998, while BasketEurope has been a go-to source for French and European leagues since 2010.

NSN's got its eye on global domination in the sports media world. Acquiring these two platforms is a major leap forward in their ambitious strategy. NSN sees strong, respected basketball platforms as the key to cracking open critical markets.

Rather than sack the existing teams, NSN plans to let both crews keep on doing what they do best—journalism. Fabrice Auclert, the founder of BasketUSA, gave a warm welcome to the deal, stating, "With North Star, we've found a partner that can grow the brand while respecting its essence. This way, we can concentrate on doing one thing and one thing only: killing it in the journalism game!"

NSN: The New French Connection in Basketball

NSN views this acquisition as a major win in its quest to become the world's ultimate sports media goliath. Yann Decoopman, co-founder of NSN, beamed with pride saying, "We're over the moon to welcome BasketUSA and BasketEurope into our cosmic family. Their expertise, devotion to the game, and solid fanbase align perfectly with our mission."

While BasketUSA has been serving up NBA news and global hoops since 1998, BasketEurope, founded in 2010, has made a name for itself as a top source for professional basketball coverage in France and across Europe. Maxime Weber, Director of BasketEurope, shared, "Joining forces with the North Star Network offers a thrilling opportunity to continue our mission within an international setup, all while upholding our journalistic standards."
