Watching Wizards Games on Local Channels
The Washington Wizards sit in the Washington, DC (Hagerstown) TV market. None of the upcoming games are on a channel that has a local station there, so every one of them needs a national network or a streaming pass.

| Network | Station | Services confirmed to carry it |
|---|---|---|
| ABC | WJLA 7 | Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, and YouTube TV |

These are the carriers our market data confirms, and it runs behind on smaller-market deals, so treat a missing service as unconfirmed rather than unavailable. Check your ZIP code with a service before you pay for a month. See local channels for more markets.
