The NBA Playoffs bring wall-to-wall basketball across national and regional networks. Here is how coverage breaks down by round and platform.
National TV
ESPN, ABC, and TNT share national playoff games. ABC typically airs weekend marquee matchups, while ESPN and TNT rotate weeknight doubleheaders through the conference finals.
Streaming
ESPN+ and the NBA League Pass supplement national windows. League Pass blackout rules still apply when a game airs on national TV in your market.
Conference finals and Finals
Only one national broadcaster carries each game from the conference finals onward. Check Matchschedules for the full bracket schedule with channel assignments updated daily.
