Amazon is in talks to become a major player in regional sports broadcasting for the National Basketball Association, Major League Baseball, and the National Hockey League with a surprise deal that could shake up the way fans have watched their local teams for decades, the Post has learned.

The online retail and streaming giant is closing in on an agreement with bankrupt Diamond Sports Group to stream most of the Bally Sports parent company’s content, according to a report in the Post. Fans could pay approximately $20 per month to Amazon to gain access to regional teams. (FOS)

This news comes just weeks after Amazon reportedly walked away from a $115 million deal to acquire streaming rights for certain NBA teams from Bally Sports. However, it appears that the tech giant is back at the negotiating table, potentially eyeing a more expansive agreement with a new agreement that will likely have different terms than the original deal.
