Now into AT&T Sportsnet territory... The Utah Jazz is planning to launch a direct OTT offering when their deal with Warner Bros. Discovery is up, although it plans to sell some linear rights. The Athletic has suggested Altitude Sports and Entertainment (owned by Denver sports mogul Stan Kroenke, which operates out of Denver but covers all ten Rocky Mountain states, including Utah) and Scripps Sports (Scripps operates Fox affiliate KSTU in Salt Lake, as well as the Ion station in that city) as front-runners for the linear rights.

A similar model has been used by the Clippers since last year, when they renegotiated the deal with Bally to allow them to air all non-nationally televised games, under the condition of selling some preseason and lower-profile regular season games to KTLA and airing them on an internal OTT offering, ClipperVision, which also provides alternate feeds featuring Spanish and Korean-language commentary, as well as something called BallerVision, which is a Manningcast style feed featuring commentary from former Clippers players.
