The NBA is known to make some noise on social media. Frequently, you’ll see the words “This League” tweeted following something crazy happening. Just recently, the footage of Draymond Green punching Jordan Poole was released prompting an NBA firestorm on Twitter. Here are the best NBA media teams.
The Best NBA Social Media Teams
Trail Blazers
A lot of east coast fans have a much tougher time keeping up with West Coast teams like the Trail Blazers because they are usually playing too late. But that does not mean that their accounts are bad. Portland is consistently viewed as one of, if not the best, NBA social media teams. They make staying up late fun. Hopefully, they will stay great with the wonderful Amara Baptist no longer there.
Atlanta Hawks
Atlanta has a top-tier NBA social media team. They host live chats with players, like their “Hawk Hangouts” on Facebook Live which allows fans to ask their favorite players questions. Their social media posts spark conversation and debate among fans. Behind-the-scenes content is also a staple of the Hawks’ social media accounts, which is a really cool thing for fans to see.
Miami Heat
Miami uses a meme after pretty much every win. It is great and especially connects with the younger part of the fanbase. How they do not run out of memes is a mystery to me. But they do it. The team is very interactive with its fans. It does not matter if they are winning or losing or who is playing, they are always doing a great job with things on their social media accounts.
Sacramento Kings
A couple of years ago the Sacramento Kings were named the “Most Innovative Company in Sports” by Fast Company. It was for good reason. The team has used things like augmented reality and 360-degree videos. They ran great campaigns when opening their new arena in 2016. For a team that has been as bad as they have over the last 16 years, you need to be one of the best NBA social media teams, and the Kings have just that.
Phoenix Suns
The Suns’ social media team is great. They will call you out. They will clap back at you. Everyone is ready for the smoke. Do not test them. The best part is that they have only gotten even better at it as the team has gotten consistently good over the past few seasons.
Milwaukee Bucks
The Bucks are really good at trolling. Almost as good as they are at basketball, which is, of course, saying something. There are other kinds of content that the team puts out too which is good. Of course, it always helps if you are as good as they are and have a guy like Giannis Antetokounmpo on your team.
