Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves played in front of their biggest crowd yet, boosting TNT to its top first or second round NBA playoff audience on record.

Sunday’s Timberwolves-Nuggets second round NBA playoff Game 7 averaged a combined 4.1 rating and 8.41 million viewers across TNT (3.7, 7.51M) and truTV (0.41, 905K), marking the largest early round NBA playoff audience ever on TNT Sports (formerly Turner Sports). The previous high was 8.38 million for Magic-Celtics Game 7 in 2009. Keep in mind out-of-home viewing was not tracked in Nielsen estimates until 2020, meaning that 2009 game almost certainly averaged more viewers all things being equal. Minnesota’s comeback win, which peaked with 11.3 million viewers from 10:15-10:30 PM ET

Thought the Lakers-Warriors Game 6 last year was the most watched one ever but that aired on ESPN and it averaged 8.64 million viewers.

Seems like the league is in good hands if they could get numbers close to that without Bron/Steph.

Too bad they're leaving Turner.

Nothing to see here, there was a viral rumor going around before the game that Lebron had signed with the Wolves earlier that day thru a special league exemption. People were tuning in expecting to see him. Thats all that was.

Mods close the thread.
