FanDuel, North America’s premier online gaming company, and Euroleague Basketball today announced a multi-year broadcasting agreement extending their partnership through 2028. Under the renewed deal, FanDuel will continue to broadcast EuroLeague games for free in the United States via FanDuel TV’s FAST channel FanDuel TV Extra and its OTT platform FanDuel TV+.

The renewed partnership, secured by Euroleague Basketball’s strategic partner IMG, builds on a successful collaboration that began in 2024. The expanded agreement will bring fans in the U.S. even greater access to Europe’s top basketball competition, airing 100+ games per season,including live coverage of selected EuroLeague Regular Season games every week, the Play-In Showdown, Playoffs, and the Final Four.

“We are extremely satisfied to renew this agreement, as FanDuel is a key partner in expanding our global footprint and delivering the rich tradition of European basketball to U.S. audiences,” said Alex Ferrer Kristjansson, Euroleague Basketball Marketing and Communication Chief Officer. “After a successful first season, FanDuel’s expanded coverage clearly shows the growing interest EuroLeague is generating among American fans.”

This renewal coincides with a period of growth for the EuroLeague. For the first time since the league format was established, 20 teams will compete, marking the debut of Dubai Basketball and further reinforcing the league’s global reach and appeal. The expanded broadcast coverage offers American basketball fans the chance to experience the competitiveness, intensity, and skill of Europe’s premier basketball league on a free-to-air basis, strengthening both FanDuel TV’s live sports portfolio and EuroLeague’s international visibility.

“We’re thrilled to extend our partnership with EuroLeague, which showcases some of the highest-caliber basketball in the world,” said Michael Shiffman, SVP and Executive Producer of FanDuel TV. “Bringing this premium content to our fans aligns perfectly with our mission. By making more than 100 EuroLeague games available on FanDuel TV Extra and FanDuel TV+, we’re giving fans in the U.S. an easy, and completely free way to watch and follow Europe’s premier league.” 

In addition to FanDuel TV Extra and FanDuel TV+, select EuroLeague games will also air across FanDuel Sports Network and stream on the FanDuel Sports Network app, giving fans even more ways to watch.
