He Turned Down $1M to Bet on Him & His Friends… Now He Runs a Sports Media Empire

This is the story of Kenny Beecham, the creator who went from gaming videos and working at a Vitamin Shoppe… to building one of the most influential basketball media brands on YouTube.

FOS Reporter Derryl Barnes spent the weekend with Kenny & team at the NBA All-Star Weekend to understand just how they’ve built such a devout fanbase and what goes into everything they do.

After years with House of Highlights, Kenny and his team Numbers on the Board made a bold move: Walk away from a massive contract… and bet on ownership.

That decision led to:

  • The rise of Numbers On The Board
  • A licensing deal with ESPN and Omaha Productions
  • A new media company: Enjoy Basketball
  • Partnerships with platforms like NBC and Peacock

This is a story about creators, ownership, and the future of sports media.

A new weeknight TV show breaking down the business and culture of sports, premiering September 14th.
