As the regional sports broadcast model unravels, the Spurs turn to a global streaming company as their new game-night home.

Why the Spurs are cutting the cord and heading to streaming platform DAZN

The San Antonio Spurs have announced a new partnership with global streaming platform DAZN to distribute their games for the 2026-27 season. This marks a shift away from the traditional regional sports network model, as the team will now primarily stream their games through an app on smart TVs, mobile devices, web browsers, and game consoles.

DAZN, which initially gained prominence as a streaming leader for international sports, will broadcast every regular-season game and all five preseason contests, totaling 67 games throughout the season. In addition to live games, fans will also have access to pre- and post-game shows, highlights, behind-the-scenes storytelling, and original programming.

The Spurs will oversee the full production of all games, while DAZN will distribute select programming from other clubs under the team's umbrella. The subscription service for DAZN's Spurs channel will launch in the coming weeks, with a monthly pass priced at $19.99 and a season pass available for $119.99. Fans who join the Official Spurs Fan Club by Sept. 9 will be eligible for an exclusive discount.
