The Dallas Wings are coming to KFAA 29.

The North Texas-based Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) team on Feb. 13, 2025, announced a new broadcast rights agreement with TEGNA's KFAA, making WFAA's sister station the exclusive local television partner of the Wings.

Under the agreement, all Wings games that are not designated for national television will be available for free over-the-air on KFAA (Ch. 29) in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. A select number of games could also air on WFAA (Ch. 8).

The Wings, who have the No. 1 overall pick in this year's WNBA draft, open the season May 16 against the Minnesota Lynx at the College Park Center in Arlington.

“We are thrilled to announce this groundbreaking broadcast partnership with KFAA,” Dallas Wings CEO and managing partner Greg Bibb said. “Wings games will now be available via local broadcast to more people than ever before through the tremendous reach of KFAA. We are appreciative of the investment TEGNA is making in the Wings and women’s sports and we look forward to partnering with them to deliver world class live sports programming to fans across North Texas.”

Fans will be able to watch KFAA (Ch. 29) games through their cable, satellite, or streaming provider or through an HD antenna. As of Jan. 22, KFAA is available on the following providers in Dallas-Fort Worth: AT&T U-verse TV (Ch. 29/1029), Charter Spectrum (Ch. 29/1291), DIRECTV (Ch. 29), DIRECTV Stream, DISH (Ch. 29), Frontier Fiber (Ch. 29/529), Fubo, GEUS (Ch. 510), Grande Communications/Astound Broadband, OneSource Communications (Ch. 25), and Optimum (Ch. 10/14).

KFAA and WFAA are also home to the Dallas Mavericks, who announced a multi-year rights agreement with TEGNA before this season. KFAA also carries games for the Texas Legends of the NBA's G League.

“The Dallas Wings are the perfect next addition to our growing roster of sports broadcasts on KFAA,” said Carolyn Mungo, president and general manager of WFAA/KFAA. “KFAA has become the local destination for basketball fans, and we couldn’t be more excited to showcase the Wings and their tenth anniversary season.”
