FanDuel Sports Networks 拖欠 NBA 球队转播费

January 05, 2026

由 AI 报道

由 Main Street Sports Group 拥有的 FanDuel Sports Networks 据报道未能支付 1 月份给其 13 支 NBA 球队的媒体转播费。受影响的特许经营球队包括老鹰、鹈鹕、骑士、活塞、步行者、快船、灰熊、热火、雄鹿、森林狼、雷霆、魔术和马刺。此事继其拖欠 MLB 圣路易斯红雀队的类似付款之后，引发了对该网络未来的质疑。

这一问题于 2026 年 1 月 5 日星期一通过《Sports Business Journal》的 Tom Friend 报道曝光。作为回应，未收到付款的 NBA 球队计划向 Main Street Sports Group 发出违约通知。这将启动 15 天补救期，在此期间公司可能纠正情况以避免合同违约。

这一事件加剧了围绕 FanDuel Sports Networks 的持续不稳定性。上个月，《华尔街日报》详细报道了 Main Street 与总部位于伦敦的流媒体服务 DAZN 的正式谈判。然而，如果交易失败，《Sports Business Journal》表示，运营可能在当前 NBA 和 NHL 赛季结束时停止。

NBA 正为潜在中断做准备。在最坏情况下，如果 Main Street 在赛季中途关闭，联盟准备接管这 13 支球队的本地转播制作和分发。至于 DAZN 收购，它将为观众维持转播连续性，但涉及球队接受比现有协议更低的转播费。据报道，如果 Main Street 的 29 支 MLB、NBA 和 NHL 球队中超过 10 支选择其他路径，DAZN 将放弃收购。

在最近一次 NBA 与球队的电话会议中，据消息人士称，DAZN 的拟议投资被否决。此外，NBA 球队的合同包含保护措施，使其在 Main Street 崩溃时成为首要债权人，确保在其他义务之前收回费用。因此，许多球队可能更倾向于让网络倒闭，而不是接受不太有利的 DAZN 安排。

如果关闭发生，这 29 支球队将考虑诸如地面波与流媒体混合、与其他区域网络合作或整合进联盟管理的媒体等选项。
