Indiana Pacers Partner With DAZN As New Streaming Home For Games
The Indiana Pacers have a new broadcast partner to stream their games as they have inked a five-year deal with DAZN.
The Indiana Pacers have announced a new streaming partnership with DAZN as their primary platform for watching games. This replaces a previous broadcast deal owned by Main Street Sports Group. Pacers CEO Mel Raines said the partnership aims to make Pacers basketball more accessible than ever before.
DAZN, pronounced Da-Zone, is a digital-first company with 300 million users globally, 85% of whom are international. For the 2026-27 NBA season, 22 games and four preseason matches will be streamed for free on DAZN's app, with 15 additional games airing on local over-the-air television. The Pacers will have their own hub within the DAZN app where fans can sign up and stream games.
The partnership is five years long, though the NBA required a potential out clause in case of an aggregated solution with all teams. Pacers fans within their local bubble in Indiana, Kentucky, Iowa, Illinois, and Missouri will be able to watch the team through DAZN's app. DAZN has not yet integrated cable, and the team is aware of concerns for older fans who may have difficulties accessing the streaming service.
