Is NBA streaming on Peacock? Everything you need to know

The NBA will not be available for streaming on Peacock for the 2023-24 season. Except for basketball fans in Philadelphia with NBC Sports regional sports network (RSN), catching live hoops action is out of the question. In areas where NBC Sports RSN is available, games are part of a $11.99 Peacock Premium package. The subscription, however, does include a variety of NFL and college football games, as well as top-draw shows.

To see the most anticipated and highly contested games, basketball fans will need to look at different streaming services. There are a couple on the market that should provide hoops-hungry fanatics with all the court action they need.

What are the best streaming sites to catch the NBA 2023-24 season?

DirectTV Stream is hands down the best streaming service to catch all the NBA action. It has ABC, ESPN and TNT in all of their plans. Most of their packages also include a wide variety of RSNs. The service has a five-day free trial as well.

What makes DirectTV Stream a basketball fan’s dream is it has tie-ups with Bally Sports Network, Altitude, Spectrum SportsNet, MSG and several others. For $74.99 per month, the service is almost a one-stop shop for basketball games.

The best alternative after DirectTV Stream is FUBO, as it has the second-most RSN available. It can also be supplemented with Max for live games on TNT’s schedule. There is a free trial that goes along with a subscription.

The service also features game providers such as NBC Sports, Bally Sports Network, Altitude, Root and Monumental. ABC and ESPN are available. TNT will need a Max subscription, however. Subscription starts at $84.99 per month with only a one-day free trial.
