The Five Teams the NBA Doesn’t Want You to Watch This Season

If you want to find out what the NBA thinks of your favorite team, look no further than the national television schedule.

For the second season of its 11-year agreement, the NBA is splitting its prime-time slates across three different networks—NBC Universal (NBC and Peacock), Disney (ESPN and ABC) and Amazon (Prime Video). All season long, NBC will broadcast national games on Monday and Tuesday, ESPN will take the Wednesday slate and Prime Video will wrap up the work week with Friday prime-time games. Later on in the season (in January and beyond), Prime Video will tack on Thursday games, ESPN will add Friday games, and the weekend will be split between Disney (Saturday games on ABC and ESPN) and NBC (Sunday games on NBC and Peacock).
