The Basketball Writers

The Basketball Writers is an online subscription content and media company established in 2018, focusing on NBA, WNBA, and Fantasy hoops. Their emphasis on fair treatment for both writers and readers is reflected in their slogan, "Embrace high-level NBA, WNBA, and Fantasy basketball content, free from ads and distractions, while supporting your favorite writers directly." The company operates without ads, popup videos, clickbait, or data selling, dedicating its efforts exclusively to the game. Their business model allows readers to access premium content while directly supporting a chosen writer or the entire team collectively through subscriptions.

The company received a $50.00K investment in a Seed Round on 01 June 2018. Despite not having disclosed specific investors, this initial funding indicates early investor confidence in the venture. The focus on niche sports content and the direct support model adds an interesting angle to their value proposition. By steering clear of traditional revenue channels and prioritizing quality content and reader engagement, The Basketball Writers has the potential to carve a unique space in the digital sports media landscape.
