There are already several different streaming platforms and channels that fans have to keep track of if they want to watch every Spurs game — and a new one just got added to the mix. Here's what to know. 

The Spurs have inked a partnership with Maryland-based media giant Sinclair Broadcast Group to air 22 regular season games on CW SA and other local Sinclair channels across the South Texas market, the team announced Friday. Sinclair, which also owns FOX SA and WOAI, is the Spurs' over-the-air media partner beginning with this season, according to a release.

"The Spurs are an important part of the fabric of South Texas, and we’re proud to partner with the team to bring more games to fans across the region," Rob Weisbord, Sinclair chief operating officer and president of local media, said in a release. "Live local sports are a natural fit for broadcast television, and this partnership reflects our commitment to making compelling content that enriches local lives."

How can Spurs fans watch games in San Antonio?

Fans in the San Antonio market can access games airing on CW SA through their digital antenna, cable, satellite and live TV providers. Viewers in secondary markets across South Texas can catch those games on select local channels, the release said. CW SA joins an already expansive plethora of ways to watch games.

In recent years the NBA divvied up regular and postseason games between Amazon (Prime Video), The Walt Disney Company (ESPN/ABC) and NBCUniversal (NBC/Peacock) until the 2035-36 season, and the Spurs recently joined DAZN (pronounced da-zone) to stream all regular season contests not selected exclusively for national broadcast.

The deal with ESPN/ABC means some games will also air on KSAT 12. A spokesperson for KSAT confirmed with MySA that those games are currently planned for December 25 (New York Knicks), January 30 (Golden State Warriors), February 6 (Los Angeles Lakers), February 28 (Denver Nuggets) and March 14 (Oklahoma City Thunder). However, that schedule is subject to change or additions. 

The full season schedule lays out which games will be broadcast on which platforms and channels, any many bouts can be found on multiple. The first game this season to air on CW SA will be the Tuesday, October 27s match-up against the Sacramento Kings at home. It will also be streamable on DAZN and air on WOAI radio.

"We’re excited to make this over-the-air option available, giving more fans a convenient way to watch the team, share in the Spurs spirit and stay connected throughout the season. This partnership with Sinclair helps us create more opportunities for viewers across our market to experience Spurs basketball."
