Arizona:Β The Wildcats routinely host scouts from all NBA teams during practices, while games often attract a handful to each. A player’s name recognition tends to improve with UA’s widespread television coverage, too. During the last regular season, Arizona had 11 games on the ESPN platforms, six on Fox channels and another two on CBS.

Professional:Β Any games Alkins might play in the D-League will most often be streamed. The midseason D-League showcase is televised on ESPNU and NBA TV. NBA games are covered under a $2.66 billion deal involving ESPN/ABC and Turner. But the NBA team he signs with will be watching every move he makes closely.Β
