The 2026-27 season opens a new era of sorts for the Charlotte Hornets, with Brandon Miller and Kon Knueppel the undisputed marquee attractions after the team moved on from LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges.
The way fans will watch the games is new, as well. DAZN is now the team's direct-to-consumer media partner, set to air preseason and regular-season games along with additional Hornets content all season long.

It should be a fascinating season for Charlotte hoops fans. Here's everything fans need to know to check out the Hornets' new streaming home.
What is DAZN?
DAZN (pronounced da-zone) is a sports streaming service that gives fans access to live and on-demand events without needing a traditional cable subscription. Available in more than 200 countries and territories, DAZN initially made its mark through its combat sports coverage, especially boxing, MMA and pay-per-view fight nights.
In 2026, DAZN secured regional streaming rights to several NBA teams' games, including the Hornets, Knicks, Pacers, Timberwolves, Spurs, Nets and Wizards.
One of DAZN’s biggest selling points is convenience. Instead of relying on a cable package or satellite provider, fans can stream DAZN through the app on smart TVs, phones, tablets, computers and connected devices. That makes it easier to watch live sports at home or on the go.
