TEGNA Inc. and the Dallas Mavericks are significantly expanding the reach of Mavericks games across Texas. Eight additional television stations will join the existing six TEGNA stations to broadcast all Mavericks games not aired exclusively on national television, bringing the total to 14 stations reaching approximately 14 million viewers free over-the-air.
This expansion means that 70 or more Mavericks games will be available for free throughout the season. The eight new stations joining the broadcast lineup include:
- Amarillo, Texas – KFDA 10.2 (Independent – Gray)
- El Paso, Texas – KDBC 4.2 (MyNetworkTV – Sinclair)
- Harlingen-Brownsville, Texas – KGBT 4.1 (MyNetworkTV – Nexstar)
- Laredo, Texas – KXNU 10.2 (Gray Sports – Gray)
- Lubbock, Texas – KMYL 14.1 (MyNetworkTV – Gray)
- Sherman, Texas – KXII 12.2 (MyNetworkTV – Gray)
- Shreveport, La. & Texarkana, Texas – KSHV 45.1 (MyNetworkTV – Nexstar)
- Wichita Falls, Texas & Lawton, Okla. – KJBO 3.2 (MyNetworkTV – Nexstar)
“We’re thrilled by the positive response from fans and advertising partners as we gear up to significantly expand the reach of Mavs games,” said Brad Ramsey, senior vice president of media operations at TEGNA.
This initiative represents a collaborative effort between TEGNA and other broadcasting companies including Gray Media, Nexstar, and Sinclair, ensuring wider access to Mavericks games for fans across the state.
“Providing access to games has always been our top priority,” said Dallas Mavericks CEO Cynt Marshall. “We are thrilled to work with WFAA to bring more fun and excitement to all of our MFFLs across North Texas and beyond.”
In addition to these new stations, newly rebranded TEGNA station KFAA Dallas-Ft. Worth (Ch. 29) will also broadcast all non-nationally televised games, with some games simulcast on WFAA Dallas-Ft. Worth (Ch. 8). KFAA games will be available through various cable and satellite providers.
This expanded broadcast strategy aims to make Mavericks basketball more accessible than ever before, catering to a wider audience across Texas. Fans can find details on how to watch games at mavs.com/broadcast.
