Because of Canadian travel restrictions, the Toronto Raptors are playing the 2020-21 season in Tampa, Florida. Wikipedia states that Raptors games will be available to watch on TSN and Sportsnet in Canada, as always, but it says nothing about local television coverage in Tampa. Are they having any?

No specifics, but this article says the Raptors will be on TV live in Tampa.

“Games will also be broadcast from Amalie Arena, giving Tampa some TV time.”
