Mid-Season Savings Unveiled#

Basketball fans looking to catch the remainder of the NBA season have a compelling new opportunity to subscribe to the league's streaming service at a significant discount. NBA League Pass is currently offering subscriptions at up to 55 percent off the regular price, making it an ideal time for viewers to tune in.

With the season nearly halfway complete, the timing of this promotion allows subscribers to catch dozens of out-of-market games for the rest of the year. The sale brings the cost of the premium experience down to a more accessible price point for casual and dedicated fans alike.

Subscription Tiers & Pricing#

The current promotion offers substantial savings across both of the service's primary subscription options. The League Pass Premium tier is available for $75, a sharp reduction from its usual $160 price tag.

For those seeking a more budget-friendly option, the League Pass Standard plan is marked down to $50 from its standard $110 cost. While the Standard plan supports only one device at a time and includes commercials, the Premium tier offers a more robust feature set.

The Premium subscription includes several enhancements designed for the dedicated viewer:

  • Ad-free viewing experience
  • In-arena streams during game breaks
  • Offline viewing for full games
  • Concurrent streams on up to three devices

Advanced Viewing Features#

Beyond the core pricing structure, NBA League Pass has integrated several advanced tools to enhance the viewing experience. Last year, the platform introduced a multiview feature, which allows users to watch up to four different games simultaneously on a single screen.

This functionality is included across both subscription tiers, ensuring all users can track multiple matchups at once. Additionally, the service recently added a smart rewind tool. This feature automatically selects key highlights and plays them back from each game, helping fans catch up on the most important moments they may have missed.

Geographic Availability & Blackouts#

The accessibility of NBA League Pass varies significantly depending on the viewer's location. Outside of the United States and Canada, the service provides access to every single NBA game live.

However, within these two countries, a bevy of restrictions apply due to broadcasting rights. In the US, games being shown on regional sports networks are blacked out, as the service is intended strictly for out-of-market games. Furthermore, nationally broadcast games are not available for live viewing; instead, they become available for on-demand viewing at 6:00 AM ET the following day.

Subscribers can get a list of applicable blackouts by entering their ZIP code before signing up.

It is important to note that the service is limited to regular-season games. Despite these blackout restrictions, avid NBA fans who follow multiple teams will still find dozens of games available to watch throughout the season.

Final Whistle#

This mid-season discount represents a strategic opportunity for basketball enthusiasts to secure comprehensive coverage for the games that remain. By offering the Premium tier at nearly half price, the barrier to accessing high-quality, multi-device streaming is significantly lowered.

For fans willing to navigate the specific blackout rules of their region, the value proposition is strong. The combination of multiview capabilities, offline viewing, and smart highlights makes this an attractive offer for anyone wanting to stay connected to the league's action through the playoffs.
