FanDuel, the sports-betting giant, is close to an agreement to put its brand on 18 regional pay-TV networks owned by Diamond Sports Group. Diamond Sports Group, the bankrupt local sports broadcaster, is facing significant challenges as negotiations with Comcast have reached an impasse in Houston. Diamond's attorney stated that they have little choice but to explore alternatives, including a potential new deal with Fubo TV. Meanwhile, as league partners continue to balk, the fate of Bally Sports Regional Sports Networks (RSNs) is likely to be decided in July. Lawyers for professional baseball, basketball, and hockey leagues have indicated that Diamond is close to losing any chance to revive itself.
