Knowing whether your team is in market or out of market is key to understanding how to stream their games. "In market" refers to the geographical area wherein a station or network has purchased exclusive broadcast rights for their local team's games. In-market areas are usually located in the team’s city or metro region, but can sometimes extend to larger geographic areas. Anyone living in the market for a team will need access to a streaming service that includes the channel that owns the local broadcast rights in order to see their team's games.
