Why is my NBA game blacked out on League Pass?

In the U.S., League Pass excludes live local-team and nationally televised games. Check the assigned broadcaster before buying another package.

Find the route for your game

  1. Local team: check the regional broadcaster and whether your existing TV package or local team subscription carries the game.
  2. National game: use the assigned ESPN, ABC, NBC, Peacock or Prime Video broadcast. These games are not available live through League Pass in the U.S.
  3. Unsure which teams are local? Enter your ZIP on the official League Pass page.
Can I watch later?

The NBA currently lists local-game replays after three days and U.S. national-game replays at 6 a.m. Eastern the next day. Confirm the replay in your account.

What if I am outside the U.S.?

Rules differ by country. Use the NBA’s location-specific policy rather than applying U.S. restrictions to another country.
