How NBA TV works now
The NBA's TV map got redrawn in 2025 — games now live across two networks, three streamers, a league channel, and whatever your local market does. Three questions sort it out, and every game page here lists the exact feeds.
The quick answer
Three questions
- National game? Watch the listed network or stream — it works anywhere in the U.S.
- Not national, and you're in the team's market? Local channel or the team's streaming app. League Pass is blacked out for you.
- Not national, out of market? League Pass has it live. That's the whole point of League Pass.
The national slate
Who shows what
| Network | Typical windows |
|---|---|
| ABC / ESPN | Saturday primetime, Christmas, the NBA Finals |
| NBC / Peacock | Sunday nights (post-football), Monday and Tuesday nights |
| Prime Video | Thursday and Friday doubleheaders, the NBA Cup knockout rounds, the Play-In |
| NBA TV | A rotating national game most nights |
- ABC / ESPN. The Finals stay on ABC. ESPN games also stream on the ESPN app.
- NBC / Peacock. NBA on NBC is back for the first time since 2002. Most games simulcast on Peacock; some are Peacock-only.
- Prime Video. Streaming only — not on cable at all. Prime covers it.
- NBA TV. The league's own channel — on most TV providers, or as a League Pass add-on.
Local broadcasts
In-market only
Every non-national game still has a local feed — an RSN for some teams (FanDuel Sports Networks, YES, and friends), free over-the-air TV plus a team app for a growing number (MavsTV, Jazz+, BlazerVision). Either way it only works inside the team's home turf, which is why game pages mark these feeds in-market.
League Pass
The out-of-market catch-all
- Every game streams live — unless it's in your market (use the local feed) or a national exclusive (use that feed).
- Every game, national ones included, gets a full replay and a condensed cut shortly after the buzzer.
- NBA TV is an add-on if your TV provider doesn't carry it.

Radio
SiriusXM has a national call for nearly every game, and every team has its own radio broadcast in market. Game pages list both.
