The Yankees-controlled YES Network and James Dolan-led MSG Networks will make global sports platform DAZN the exclusive streaming home for their teams.
Beginning with the 2026–27 NBA and NHL seasons, DAZN (“da-zone”) will stream the Yankees, Knicks, Nets, Rangers, Devils, Islanders, and Sabres, as well as the 24/7 feeds of the YES Network and MSG Networks, to subscribers in those teams’ local markets.
The switch to DAZN will mean the shuttering of the Gotham Sports app.
Since August 2024, the YES Network and MSG Networks have collaborated on the Gotham Sports app, representing a rare bundling of separate regional sports network services in a single market, and building a technology-based joint venture struck earlier that year.
After a series of price decreases implemented in early 2026, the YES Network has seen a 33% boost in its streaming audience this year, even with an injury-laden Yankees team, and the Knicks won their first NBA title since 1973.
