DIRECTV, Dish and Sling TV will air a free preview of the NBA League Pass from Tuesday, January 13, through Monday, January 19. (Comcast’s Xfinity TV and other TV providers may offer the free preview as well. Check your on-screen TV guide for more details.)

The mid-season cost for the NBA League Pass is now $79.99. You can purchase it through such providers as DIRECTV, Dish, Xfinity TV, Sling TV, Amazon’s Prime Video and the league’s own site. (Fubo and YouTube TV no longer carry the League Pass.)

The free preview does not require you to sign up for the package at DIRECTV, Sling TV or Dish. You just need to be a regular subscriber to one of those services to watch the games for free during the week preview.

Local blackouts apply in the NBA League Pass package. You cannot watch the team or teams in your local market with a League Pass subscription. You can determine which teams would be blacked out in your zip code here.

Both Amazon and the NBA’s League Pass offer a free seven-day trial.
