If you watch the Minnesota Timberwolves from your couch in the Twin Cities, your setup is about to look different this season. The Wolves are leaving the FanDuel Sports Network app and moving to a new streaming partner, DAZN, and the pricing structure has shifted along with it.
What Changed for Wolves Fans in 2026
DAZN released its pricing this week. The standard plan is $20 per month or $120 for the full season. The ultimate tier is $25 per month or $140 for the season, and it comes with alternate camera views and a one-time 25% discount at the team store.
Last season, fans paid $20 per month through the FanDuel Sports Network app, and that price included Wild games. This year's DAZN plan does not bundle the Wild, so that's the biggest thing for households that followed both teams on one app.
How to Watch Without Paying
Here's the good news if you're watching the budget. You will not have to pay to see every game. DAZN plans to air 15 Wolves games free on a local over-the-air station, and 33 more are nationally televised. Add the one-week free trial, and roughly 50 games are within reach without a subscription.
The remaining 30-plus games run about $4 each to stream locally. Season-ticket holders receive 20% off, and the ultimate plan allows up to 5 screens across two locations, which quietly opens the door to splitting a subscription with a friend or family member.
What This Means for Twin Cities Sports Fans
Beyond the numbers, this is another step in the slow breakup between local sports and traditional cable. For years, following the Wolves meant a cable package or a regional sports network. Now the decision looks more like the streaming math we already do for everything else, weighing a monthly fee against how many games you'll realistically watch.
For a lot of east metro households, the free over-the-air games plus a short trial may cover most of the season without a recurring charge. And with Wolves games returning to Twin Cities bars and restaurants through a business partnership, catching a game out with friends stays easy too.
If you're a casual fan, the free route probably covers you. If you're all-in, the season pass pencils out to a reasonable per-game cost.
