The Miami Heat is the first NBA team that I’ve seen so far to announce their local broadcast rights plan for the 2026-27 season.
I’d say we will begin to hear more about other teams as we go through the summer. Both the NBA and NHL, like MLB did earlier this year, are scrambling for plans with the Main Street Sports Owned (FanDuel Sports) fading out.
