Fans looking to watch the entire Cleveland Cavaliers' 2026-27 season will need to purchase multiple streaming services, including a new local carrier for games.
Last year, the Cavaliers aired on FanDuel Sports Network, but the network has stopped broadcasting regional games in Ohio, which also impacted the Blue Jackets. Before the season began, the Cavaliers landed on DAZN, a U.K.-based streaming service that has picked up broadcasts for multiple NBA teams.
In 2025-26, the Cavaliers made it to the Eastern Conference Finals before getting swept by the New York Knicks, the eventual NBA champions.
This season, the Cavaliers lost their debut game against the Philadelphia 76ers on Oct. 23. Despite the Cavaliers holding as big as a 29-point lead, the Sixers stormed back for their largest comeback since the NBA play-by-play, data-tracking era began in 1996-97.
Here's all the info you'll need to watch the Cavaliers this upcoming season, including broadcast details for the home opener on Oct. 24.
