The Northern Arizona Suns announced Friday they will have two games shown on ESPNU during the season.

The first game on ESPNU and the ESPN app will air on Thursday, Nov. 30, at 5 p.m. when the team takes on the Greensboro Swarm.

On Friday, Jan.12, at 10 a.m. the team will be a part of the NBA G League Showcase in Mississauga, Ontario, where they will face off against the Canton Charge on ESPN.

The Phoenix Suns’ G League affiliate played two games on ESPNU last year.

The remaining 48 games will be broadcast on Facebook Live.

In addition to ESPN’s coverage, Jon Bloom is back for his second season as the team’s play-by-play broadcaster.

Up to 21 NBA G League games will be televised this season on ESPNU including 12 regular season games, playoffs and Finals.
