DFW sports fan guide: How to watch the Mavs, Wings, Stars and Rangers Friday night

DALLAS — DFW sports fans have quadruple the games on the docket for Friday night.

There are two Game 6 playoff matchups with the Stars and Mavericks playing, and a Texas Rangers game, within hours of each other.

Plus, basketball fans who are keeping an eye on Caitlin Clark’s first taste of WNBA basketball will finally get their fix, as the Indiana Fever takes on the Dallas Wings in the first preseason matchup.

First things first, you’re going to need access to Bally’s sports package.

Due to Bally’s loaded streaming schedule, the local broadcast for this game will air on TXA 21 (KTXA). The broadcast will still feature Bally’s crew: Dave Raymond, Mike Bacsik, Robby Incmikoski, Mark McLemore and Lesly McCaslin. Pregame coverage starts at 6 p.m.

The Dallas Wings’ preseason game against the Indiana Fever will stream on the Bally Sports app at 7 p.m. The game won’t be broadcast nationally and will only stream locally in the Bally Sports app or through the WNBA League Pass, the Dallas Wings said in a press release.

The Dallas Mavericks tip off at the American Airlines Center against the Los Angeles Clippers at 8:30 p.m. on ESPN and Bally Sports Southwest. You can get this game by tuning in to ESPN or Bally on your cable service or by pulling the game up on either entity’s streaming service (ESPN+ or Bally Sports Plus). 

The Stars and Golden Knights start at 9 p.m. on TNT and Bally Sports Southwest Extra. You can get this game by tuning in to TNT or Bally on your cable service or by pulling the game up on either entity’s streaming service (Sling TV, MAX or Bally Sports Plus).

Since the Mavericks and Stars games are most easily accessible on cable, we’d recommend putting one of those on your TV and the other on a second screen like a laptop. If you want the third and fourth screen, putting the Rangers and Wings on a smartphone and the other on a laptop would be the best option. 

Or … you can just pick your favorite and watch that. Anyway, there’s your guide for where to find all the games Friday night.
