Last week, Sports Business Journal reported Main Street Sports Group — which carries the games of 29 NBA, MLB and NHL teams under the name FanDuel Sports Network — missed its January payments to numerous undisclosed NBA teams.
ESPN then said nine MLB teams have terminated their contracts with Main Street Sports Group, following further financial instability from their regional sports network operator.
So, how does all of this impact the Magic?
As the future of FanDuel Sports Network seemingly grows more and more uncertain with each passing week, the Magic have been in constant contact with the media company, as well as the NBA, and contingency planning is on-going.
