Barcelona, September 24, 2007. Euroleague Basketball is proud to announce that the CBA-Euroleague Challenge 2007 is going to enjoy truly international coverage thanks to broadcasting agreements signed with Eurosport 2 and CCTV5, the Chinese national television channel that specializes in sports. Eurosport 2 will televise from China to 43 European countries three of the games between Team China, Sydney Kings, CSKA Moscow and Benetton Basket Tamoil on Sunday, September 30 and Monday, October 1. On Sunday, September 30, Eurosport 2 will broadcast the CSKA Moscow vs. Sydney Kings game and put Benetton Basket Tamoil vs. Team China on tape-delay.
