Detroit Pistons fans have a new streaming home this season, and it comes with a different kind of access than the old cable grind. DAZN is now the team’s direct-to-consumer media partner, carrying preseason and regular-season games along with additional Pistons programming all season long.
For local viewers, the setup is straightforward: every game not picked for exclusive national broadcast by one of the league’s partners will stream live and on-demand on DAZN. That gives Detroit fans a single place to follow the team throughout the season, with Cade Cunningham still front and center as the Pistons try to build on last year’s run.
DAZN, pronounced da-zone, is a sports streaming service built around live and on-demand viewing without a traditional cable subscription. It’s available in more than 200 countries and territories and first made its name through combat sports, especially boxing, MMA and pay-per-view fight nights. In 2026, DAZN added regional streaming rights for several NBA teams, including the Pistons, Knicks, Pacers, Timberwolves, Cavs, Spurs, Nets and Wizards.
The appeal for fans is simple enough: no cable package, no satellite setup. DAZN can be watched through its app on smart TVs, phones, tablets, computers and connected devices, making it easy to follow games at home or on the move.
For the Detroit market, DAZN is offering several subscription choices. The Season Pass Standard costs $119.99 per season and includes every locally produced preseason and regular-season Pistons game live and on-demand, plus pregame, halftime and postgame shows and other Pistons programming. It allows streaming on up to two devices in one location and includes download access for watching on the go.
The Monthly Pass Standard is priced at $19.99 per month and includes the same Pistons game coverage and programming, along with streaming on up to two devices in one location, downloads for offline viewing and other DAZN content for free, including international soccer, boxing and more.
Fans who want the upgraded package can go with Season Pass Ultimate for $139.99 per season or Monthly Pass Ultimate for $24.99 per month. Both include everything in the Standard tier, plus a one-time 15% off discount code for Pistons313Shop.com. The Ultimate plans also allow streaming on up to five devices in two locations and add alternate feeds and camera angles, along with multiview capability.
DAZN is also giving new users a seven-day free trial in the Detroit broadcast market to start the season. On top of that, three preseason games and 15 regular-season games will be free on the DAZN app for local fans who create a free account.
Signing up means going to the DAZN website or opening the app, selecting the correct location if prompted, choosing a plan, creating an account, entering payment information and reviewing the order before confirming. DAZN accepts several payment methods, which may include credit card, debit card, PayPal or gift code, depending on location and sign-up method.

Jalen Duren Drama Leaves Pistons Facing A Huge Long Term Question
The Pistons have spent the early part of this offseason trying to sort out one of their most important long-term decisions, and the Jalen Duren situation has only made it more complicated. Communication between Duren and the team has continued, but there is still no contract agreement in place, even after the young center requested sign-and-trade discussions back in June. For a Detroit front office trying to build around its young core, the lack of clarity around a player with Durens size and upside is a real issue, especially with the roster already in a stage where every major decision carries extra weight.
Detroits willingness to listen on the market has added another layer to the story. The Pistons have already declined at least one trade framework involving Domantas Sabonis, a sign they are not eager to rush into a move just to resolve the tension. So the franchise is left balancing patience, leverage and the need to protect its future, while Durens next step remains unresolved and the bigger question of how he fits into the long-term picture is still hanging over the team.

Cade Cunningham Is Chasing The Missing Piece Detroit Still Needs
Cade Cunningham is spending his offseason in Colorado, training at high elevation with a clear focus on endurance and core stability. For a player who already carries so much of Detroits offense, the work is aimed at making him more durable and more complete, especially as he tries to sharpen the physical edge that can matter over the course of a long season.
The Pistons, meanwhile, are still looking for more offensive help after re-evaluating the roster in the wake of last seasons playoff run. Cunninghams conditioning push fits that bigger picture, because Detroit needs its lead guard to stay effective when games tighten up late and possessions get heavier in the fourth quarter, even as the front office continues weighing what comes next.

Anthony Davis Rumors Ignore One Huge Problem For The Pistons
The Anthony Davis buzz around Detroit comes from a mock trade proposal that would send the Mavericks star to the Pistons, but the basketball fit looks shaky almost as soon as you dig into it. Davis and Jalen Duren would create an awkward overlap in the frontcourt, and the Pistons have not shown any appetite for changing course at center, where Duren remains a key part of what they are building.
There is also the practical side of any deal, which is where the idea starts to wobble even more. Davis has been available only sparingly since arriving in Dallas, and the contract attached to him would be a major burden for Detroit to absorb without tearing into the depth that has helped stabilize the roster, making the whole scenario feel more like speculation than a realistic path forward.
