ATLANTA—The Orlando Magic NBA franchise and Gray Media have announced a deal that will see Gray stations in Gainesville, Panama City, and Tallahassee broadcast about 70 games during the 2026-27 season.
All regular-season games, excluding exclusive national telecasts, will be broadcast over-the-air on digital subchannels of WTGB (Channel 34.3) in Gainesville, WJHG (Channel 7.6) in Panama City, and WCTV (Channel 6.3) in Tallahassee.
Each subchannel is affiliated with the 365BLK network and is also available on local cable systems.
In addition, select games will air on Gray’s ABC, NBC, CBS, and MyNetwork stations in these markets. A complete station lineup and broadcast schedule will be announced later.
“We are excited to partner with Gray Media to bring Magic basketball to Gainesville, Panama City, and Tallahassee,” Magic President of Business Operations Charlie Freeman said. “Adding Gray to our lineup will provide Magic fans a direct connection to the team all season long.”
Added Gray Chief Operating Officer Sandy Breland: “Gray knows that Orlando Magic fans in Gainesville, Panama City, and Tallahassee will love watching the full season of the Magic free, over-the-air. This relationship with the Magic builds on Gray’s other successful NBA partnerships and we look forward to continuing to build on this relationship with the Magic.”
The Magic’s broadcast team will comprise full-time play-by-play announcer Dante Marchitelli; analyst Jeff Turner, a former Magic forward; and Kendra Douglas, who is entering her fourth season as team reporter.
The Magic said that they will also announce a direct-to-consumer streaming partner in the near future.
