How to watch FanDuel Sports Network Sun with DIRECTV STREAM

  • Pricing begins at $86.99/mo
  • 90+ live TV channels
  • Free trial available

DIRECTV Stream offers several plan options that will appeal to sports fans. Although its basic Entertainment plan includes more than 75 channels, you’ll need the Choice plan or higher to stream FanDuel Sports Network Sun. The Choice plan is a solid option, as it includes a broad mix of sports, entertainment, news and family programming.

DIRECTV STREAM offers an extensive lineup of sports programming, but not all of it is available in every plan. If you opt for the Entertainment plan, you’ll get staples like ESPN, ESPN2, FS1 and Motortrend, and sports on your local network stations, but that’s about it. Once you upgrade to the Choice plan in Florida, you’ll get much more, including FanDuel Sports Network Sun, FanDuel Sports Network Florida, ESPNEWS, ESPNU, Big 10 Network, MLB Network, NBA TV and NFL Network. The top-tier plans feature a few additional channels, such as CBS Sports Network and NHL Network.

DIRECTV STREAM is ideal for the sports fan who wants a full slate of national and regional programming for major North American sports. If you upgrade to the Choice plan or higher, you’ll find plenty of NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL action, in addition to college sports, golf, racing and more. That includes major contests like the NBA finals, the Super Bowl, the Masters and the Stanley Cup Finals. You’ll also be able to catch all your favorite FanDuel Sports Network Sun teams streaming.


How to watch FanDuel Sports Network Sun on Fubo

  • Pricing begins at $84.99/mo.
  • 211+ live TV channels
  • Free trial available

Fubo was designed for sports fans, and Fubo's channel lineup shows it means business. Although the service offers three different plans, a lot of the sports content is available in the middle-tier Pro plan. This plan includes not only FanDuel Sports Network Sun and FanDuel Sports Network Florida based on your area but also more sports and entertainment than you can find at this price point on any other streaming service. The top plan offers additional programming, including more entertainment, news and sports.

Fubo offers more sports content than any other streamer. With the Pro plan, you’ll be able to catch all your top local teams with FanDuel Sports Network Florida and FanDuel Sports Network Sun streaming, plus national coverage on local TV stations and big-name networks like ESPN, FS1, NFL Network, beIN Sports, CBS Sports Network, Big Ten Network and more. The Pro plan is all you need to watch Tampa Bay Rays games, the Super Bowl, the Kentucky Derby or the Indianapolis 500. 

If you want more than that, Fubo has plenty of options. The Elite plan adds channels like NBA TV, NHL Network and MLB Network. There's also the Sports Plus with NFL RedZone Add-on (which you can add to any plan for $10.99 per month). That can expand your coverage to include NFL RedZone, MLB Strike Zone, ESPNU, Tennis Channel and more. 

Overall, Fubo has a lot to offer sports fans, including coverage of international sports like European soccer. The biggest downside is the notable absence of TBS and TNT, both of which include some major national sports coverage.


How to watch FanDuel Sports Network Sun on the app

Another option for watching your local FanDuel Sports Network content is the FanDuel Sports Network Plus streaming app. Programming includes coverage for 16 NBA teams and 12 NHL teams. MLB coverage is available in select regions with coverage for the Detroit Tigers, Milwaukee Brewers, Miami Marlins, Kansas City Royals and Tampa Bay Rays. In areas where more than one FanDuel Sports Network channel is available, you’ll find an option to bundle the channels for a discounted price.

If you already have a streaming or cable subscription, you can get access to the FanDuel Sports Network Sun live stream for free in the FanDuel Sports Network app. Simply enter your provider info to connect your account and start watching. You can currently download the app on iOS and Android mobile devices, along with Roku, Amazon Fire TV and Apple TV.
