If you’re an NBA fan and enjoy the Golden State Warriors’ brand of basketball, you might have more matches out there for you on the online dating world than you would think.
A report released by online dating site Zoosk, shows that the NBA is the most-popular sport mentioned in online dating profiles, with Major League Baseball, rugby, boxing and the NFL rounding out the top five.
The NBA has seen a message rate increase of 111 percent. MLB comes in second with a 108 percent increase. Mentions of the NFL have increased by 69 percent.
In terms of the NBA, it’s all about the Warriors.
- Golden State Warriors: 80 percent
- Portland Trail Blazers: 75 percent
- Indiana Pacers: 71 percent
- Orlando Magic: 69 percent
- Oklahoma City Thunder: 67 percent
This could be due to the Northern California Bay Area being among the first regions to issue stay-at-home orders during the COVID-19 pandemic.
