Bally Sports Arizona had one of its best days in the network’s history on Wednesday.

Durant’s home debut with the Suns, a win against the Minnesota Timberwolves, was the highest-rated Suns regular season game on the local channel since a Dec. 29, 2010 game vs. the Philadelphia 76ers. That was Vince Carter’s debut with Phoenix after the star sat out his first four games as a member of the Suns with a knee injury.

Durant’s home debut was the station’s highest-rated game since Sept. 6, 2017, when the D-backs beat the Dodgers, 3-1.

The game Wednesday received a 5.2 rating with a peak of 6.0 and reached an average of 110,929 households with a peak of 128,872 on the evening.
