The Minnesota Timberwolves visit the Orlando Magic on Friday, 23 October 2026, with a scheduled 7pm Eastern tipoff at Kia Center in Orlando. The Magic list MagicTV 27 and a DAZN stream; Minnesota lists DAZN-MIN. US viewers outside the teams’ local markets can use the NBA League Pass listing, subject to the service’s location restrictions.
Orlando’s media notes identify this as its second game and second home game of the season. For viewers following this particular fixture, the useful starting point is the dated game listing: both teams’ names, 23 October and the Orlando venue. A preview, an earlier meeting or a general subscription offer does not establish access to this game.
US route for the 23 October fixture
| Viewing situation | Start here |
|---|---|
| Orlando local coverage | MagicTV 27 / DAZN, per Magic game notes |
| Minnesota local coverage | DAZN-MIN, per Wolves game listing |
| Outside both local markets | NBA game page / League Pass; check ZIP restrictions |
| Local blackout; replay later | League Pass: three days after broadcast ends |
Scheduled tipoff: 7pm Eastern, 23 October, Kia Center. This is US guidance; playback, price and free access were not verified.
Start with the local game listing
Orlando’s official media page names MagicTV 27 as the television carrier and says the game is streamed on DAZN. It also lists the Magic Audio Network, with 96.9 FM The Game as its flagship, for radio coverage. These are the home team’s published routes for this fixture.
Minnesota’s regional service moved to DAZN for 2026–27. Use the team’s official DAZN link below to reach that offering. A team package is a separate viewing route from the League Pass game page; the presence of a game on an NBA schedule is not a promise that every subscriber in every location can play it live.
Why the same League Pass page can give different answers
The NBA says US local games are blacked out live on League Pass because regional broadcasters hold rights. Its package page provides a ZIP-code check for affected teams. Check that before purchasing for this matchup, and select the relevant local carrier if either team is blacked out where you are watching.
Device location matters as well as the teams involved. The NBA determines location through an IP address or enabled location services, so access can change when a viewer travels. The official blackout guide linked below explains the policy; this guide has not tested playback or checkout from a US account.
Live viewing and a later replay use different timing
For a live picture, open the appropriate local service or the dated NBA game page. For a locally blacked-out game, the NBA’s stated League Pass replay delay is three days after the broadcast ends. That differs from the next-morning rule for nationally televised games. The local-game delay is the relevant distinction when a viewer is blocked because of a home market.
Choose the service by location, then confirm this fixture within it: the Magic’s local listing in Orlando, the Wolves’ DAZN offering in their market, or the NBA game page outside both. Check the package terms before paying. A live-game listing identifies the carrier; it does not by itself establish a free entitlement or a subscription price.
