The NBA’s TV ratings are crashing after LeBron James and Anthony Davis both ended up on the injury list this month.
Ratings for the Lakers were particularly bad with James on the sidelines thanks to an ankle sprain. The Lakers blowout loss to the New Orleans Pelicans averaged 920,000 viewers on TNT, which is down 35% from 1.41 million viewers who tuned in to see the Rockets-Bucks on a comparable night in 2019, according to Sports Media Watch.
Tuesday’s game was the least-watched Lakers game since James joined the team in 2018. The previous low was the 970,000 viewers for 2019’s Lakers-Jazz game that James also missed.
James’ injury which has put him on the injured list indefinitely is reportedly bad enough that he may miss up to nine games.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
