Games will air locally on Gray Media television stations WUAB (Channel 43) and WOIO (Channel 19). Games will also air statewide on the Rock Entertainment Sports Network, which is a collaboration between Gray and the Rock Entertainment Group. When asked last month if the Cavs and DAZN had any plans for deals with cable, virtual cable services and satellite services, they were \u201cnon-committal.\u201d Thomas notes unless something changes, this is what Cavs fans, \u201chardcore and casual, can expect in the way of access.\u201d Thomas: \u201cIt\u2019s a far cry from when fans could turn on their local regional sports network and find their sports teams\u2019 games. \u2026 If this broadcast setup will be the status quo, the harsh reality sports fans will have to contend: if you want to see all games, you\u2019re going to have to pay for most of it in some form or fashion\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.beaconjournal.com\/story\/sports\/pro\/cavs\/2026\/09\/15\/cleveland-cavaliers-news-free-tv-dazn\/91765225007\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.beaconjournal.com\/story\/sports\/pro\/cavs\/2026\/09\/15\/cleveland-cavaliers-news-free-tv-dazn\/91765225007\/\">AKRON BEACON JOURNAL, 9\/15<\/a>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Cavaliers announced that \u201c15 games will be simulcast over-the-air\u201d during the upcoming season through a deal with&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":896822,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[434],"tags":[461,49,48,75,459,82],"class_list":["post-896821","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-basketball","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-nba","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/896821","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=896821"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/896821\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/896822"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=896821"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=896821"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=896821"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
