"We are appreciative of the ongoing collaboration and long-term partnerships with the NBA and NHL," David Preschlack, CEO of Diamond Sports Group, said in a statement. "These new agreements that cover NBA and NHL linear and DTC rights are another major milestone and continue Diamond's momentum toward emergence, which will enable us to provide value for our NBA and NHL partners and continue to serve dedicated local NBA, NHL and MLB fans."
"Having completed negotiations with key partners that provide certainty around our content and distribution, Diamond is well positioned for the future. With the support of our creditors, we are focused on finalizing our reorganization plan to support our emergence and presenting that plan to the Court in due course."
While the Heat intends to stay on Bally, the Panthers bolted in July, moving their games to WSFL-39 in South Florida. The move to shift games was initiated by the Panthers, but the Panthers framed it as a mutual decision because it required Bally to authorize the dissolution of their multiyear contract.
Bally Sports Sun is expected to carry as many as 81 games; a Jan. 23 game at Milwaukee is exclusive to TNT.
