FAQ
What channel is the NBA on in 2026-27?
National games are on ESPN and ABC, NBC and Peacock (plus the NBCSN cable channel), and Amazon Prime Video. NBA TV carries extra games, and every other game is on the two teams’ local channels. This is the second season of that deal: TNT no longer shows NBA games.
How do I watch NBA games without cable?
ESPN and ABC games stream in the ESPN app, NBC and NBCSN games (and Peacock exclusives) stream on Peacock, and Amazon’s games are on Prime Video. NBA League Pass in the NBA app streams out-of-market games that are not on national TV. Your own team’s local games stay on its regional channel or streaming app.
Why is a game blacked out on NBA League Pass?
League Pass blacks out games shown by your local team’s channel and games on national TV. Watch those on the local channel (or its app) or on the national network’s streaming service.
How do I watch NBA games in Canada?
Raptors games are split between TSN and Sportsnet: stream them on TSN+ (or the TSN app with a TV login) and Sportsnet+. Out-of-market games stream on NBA League Pass.
