This was the first season that put into effect the <u>~$77 billion deal<\/u> that split NBA broadcast rights across ABC\/ESPN, NBC\/Peacock, and Amazon Prime Video. While these companies broadcast major national games, out-of-market game streams are still only available through the NBA League Pass.  <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">If you\u2019ve been frustrated by this absolute streaming mess, or are generally interested in tuning into some basketball, Amazon happens to be offering free NBA League Pass access to Prime members through this entire weekend. <\/p>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\">Free NBA League Pass for Prime Members From March 13-15<\/h2>\n<div id=\"236311\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\"><span data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"236311\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><img alt=\"Free Preview of NBA League Pass\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/03\/13\/leaguepass-1773422152491.png?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/03\/13\/leaguepass-1773422152491.png?width=220&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">Free Preview of NBA League Pass<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled=\"\" type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RatingLike.ea885513.svg) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">As of 2026, the NBA is split up across multiple broadcasters, making it hard to pin down a single best NBA streaming service. The NBA League Pass includes out-of-market games, which make up the majority of regular season match-ups. National games continue to be broadcast on NBC, ABC, and ESPN. That means the Pass won\u2019t include every game this weekend, so I\u2019d recommend checking the <u>full NBA schedule<\/u> for reference. <\/p>\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\"><strong>Games Covered by Amazon\u2019s NBA League Pass Promo <\/strong><\/h3>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\">\n<aside class=\"card jsx-1339469126 jsx-1178573261 box jsx-2627838217\" data-cy=\"aside\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><strong>Friday, March 13 <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"list jsx-4224303756\" data-cy=\"list\">\n<li>Memphis Grizzlies vs Detroit Pistons &#8211; 7:30pm ET<\/li>\n<li>New York Knicks vs Indiana Pacers &#8211; 7:30pm ET<\/li>\n<li>Phoenix Suns vs Toronto Raptors &#8211; 7:30pm ET <\/li>\n<li>Cleveland Cavaliers vs Dallas Mavericks &#8211; 7:30pm ET (Prime Video) <\/li>\n<li>New Orleans Pelicans vs Houston Rockets &#8211; 8:00pm ET<\/li>\n<li>Minnesota Timberwolves vs Golden State Warriors &#8211; 10:00pm ET<\/li>\n<li>Utah Jazz vs Portland Trail Blazers &#8211; 10:00pm ET<\/li>\n<li>Chicago Bulls vs LA Clippers &#8211; 10:30pm ET<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><strong>Saturday, March 14 <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"list jsx-4224303756\" data-cy=\"list\">\n<li>Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers &#8211; 1:00pm ET<\/li>\n<li>Milwaukee Bucks vs Atlanta Hawks &#8211; 3:00pm ET<\/li>\n<li>Charlotte Hornets vs San Antonio Spurs &#8211; 3:30pm ET (Prime Video) <\/li>\n<li>Orlando Magic vs Miami Heat &#8211; 8:00pm ET<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><strong>Sunday, March 15 <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"list jsx-4224303756\" data-cy=\"list\">\n<li>Detroit Pistons vs Toronto Raptors &#8211; 3:30pm ET<\/li>\n<li>Indiana Pacers vs Milwaukee Bucks &#8211; 3:30pm ET<\/li>\n<li>Portland Trail Blazers vs Philadelphia 76ers &#8211; 6:00pm ET<\/li>\n<li>Utah Jazz vs Sacramento Kings &#8211; 10:00pm ET<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/aside>\n<\/section>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Prime memberships start at $14.99. However, Amazon Prime happens to offer a wonderful 30-day free trial, so you could theoretically jump on that to check out both services at once. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Aside from being available through Prime Video, the NBA League Pass is also available directly through the NBA site. For $16.99, you get access to every out-of-market game on one device. The Premium plan ups that price to $24.99 and lets you see what\u2019s happening on the court during commercial breaks with support on up to four devices. Both plans include multi-viewing up to four games simultaneously. Another option is the Team Pass for $13.99, which gets you all of the out-of-market games for one specific team. <\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"poll-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"\/><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">In other Prime Video news, Amazon recently announced that it will be raising prices for its ad-free streaming tier starting on April 10, 2026.
