Fubo Sports Network, the live, free-to-consumer TV network from FuboTV Inc. (NYSE: FUBO), the leading sports-first live TV streaming platform, has announced that it has signed a new, multi-year renewal with Gilbert Arenas and Josiah Johnson, hosts of No Chill with Gilbert Arenas. The popular original TV series will premiere its third season on October 27 at 3 p.m. ET / noon PT on YouTube and on Fubo Sports Network’s linear channel on October 30 at 7 p.m. ET/PT as the 2022-23 NBA season begins.

Three-time NBA All-Star Gilbert Arenas and NBA social media king Josiah Johnson talk with athletes, celebrities and more about basketball and life around it. The duo will welcome guest Victor Oladipo of the Miami Heat to the season premiere with additional guests joining new episodes each week. In addition to weekly episodes, Arenas and Johnson will host off-the-cuff and often live programming during the NBA season around events such as the NBA All-Star weekend, Playoffs, Draft and Summer League including watch parties, interviews and much more.

In addition to No Chill, Fubo Sports Network has expanded its professional basketball content with the recent debut of original series, The Young Person Basketball Podcast with R.J. Hampton. The series, which streams monthly throughout the NBA season, premiered with the Orlando Magic guard interviewing teammate and number one overall pick in the NBA draft Paolo Banchero.

Fubo Sports Network has experienced record high viewership within the past year driven by its original programming and exclusive live sports. During the month of September, viewership on the network increased by 121% year-over-year.
