Charlotte Hornets and Gray Media to Bring Hornets Games to More Fans Across the Carolinas
Most markets will carry about 75 games on secondary digital channels, while select matchups air on major network affiliates, the team said.
- On Wednesday, the Charlotte Hornets announced a multi-market broadcast partnership with Gray Media, bringing free basketball games to fans across North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia for the 2026-27 NBA season.
- Hornets Sports & Entertainment President Shelly Cayette-Weston stated the initiative addresses fan confusion from last season, saying, "Our fans-first commitment means meeting fans where they are and making it easier for them to experience Hornets basketball."
- Gray will televise roughly 75 games on secondary digital channels alongside select matchups on primary network affiliates, with pregame and postgame coverage in markets including Charleston, Columbia, and Roanoke.
- While Gray covers most markets, Sinclair will broadcast games in Greensboro and Raleigh; DAZN will serve as the exclusive direct-to-consumer streaming home for the season.
- The Hornets will reconvene for training camp next week, with the team's first preseason game scheduled for Tuesday, October 6th, against the Brooklyn Nets at the Spectrum Center.
