American Basketball League sources said Thursday the one-year-old women’s league is “very close” to a network television deal.
The network was not identified, but sources said the package will give ABL games live exposure in more than 50 million households. The league had a limited cable TV contract last season. The new deal will be announced in two weeks.
The nine-team league--which includes the expansion Long Beach StingRays--will begin its 44-game schedule in October.
