Cavaliers to Air 15 Free Games on Local TV

The Cleveland Cavaliers announced that 15 regular-season games for the 2026-27 season will be available free over-the-air, simulcast on Gray Media stations and streamed on DAZN.

The team's full local streaming package is available via DAZN subscriptions, with plans ranging from $19.99 monthly to $139.99 for a season pass. The Cavaliers join other teams like the Hornets, Magic, and Suns in offering free over-the-air viewing options.

$250M Acquisition Collapses Amid Fraud Allegations

A reported $250 million acquisition of Indian clipping startup VideoVerse by publisher Minute Media has unraveled amid multiple lawsuits alleging fraud, forged documents and missing funds. Investors and creditors — including Bluestone Capital and lender Lingotto — say they have not received expected proceeds or loan repayments and allege that founder Vinayak Shrivastav used forged merger and loan documents to extract tens of millions. Minute Media says it has terminated its contract after discovering significant discrepancies. Multiple overlapping claims are now pending in Delaware Chancery Court, and VideoVerse’s former COO has filed separate suits alleging forgery and complex secondary transactions.
