Last Friday’s game between the Golden State Warriors and Chicago Bulls lead the night with 1.59 million viewers on ESPN, though the game represented a double-digit decline from last year’s Warriors matchup against the Suns that averaged 2 million viewers.
The last three nationally-televised Warriors games have declined double-digits in viewership, including the Warriors-Mavs on TNT (1.51 million viewers) and the Clippers-Warriors on ESPN the night before Thanksgiving (1.79 million viewers).
Even with the decline, the Warriors games have been the most-watched matchup of their respective nights.
