Where to watch the NBA Finals in the US

The NBA Finals will air on ABC in the US. This means you can live stream the series directly through ESPN Unlimited or on one of the best live TV streaming services we've tested. ESPN Unlimited costs $30 a month and unlocks full live streaming capabilities across ESPN's family of networks, including ESPN on ABC content.

If you'd prefer a service with other channels, then DirecTV or Fubo might be of interest. These are two of the best ABC-friendly services we've evaluated. DirecTV MySports carries around 20 popular sports networks and unlocks access to ESPN Unlimited. Subscriptions cost $65 a month, but new users can get $15 a month off their first two months after a five-day free trial. ABC is also included in DirecTV's Signature plans.

Fubo Sports + News features around 29 popular news and sports channels and unlocks access to ESPN Unlimited. Subscriptions cost $56 a month, but you can get $10 off your first month of service after a five-day free trial. ABC is also included in Fubo's Pro and Elite packages.

Where to watch the NBA Finals in the UK

In the UK, NBA fans can live stream all of the action through Prime Video. Subscriptions start at £8 a month and include all standard Amazon Prime plans (£9 a month). If you haven't had a subscription before, there's usually a pretty generous free trial offer going on, which would cover you for the duration of the finals, plus Prime Day at the end of the month.

How to watch the NBA Finals from anywhere

NBA Finals live streams are pretty accessible around the world. Prime Video will live stream the Finals in the UK, France, Ireland, Argentina, Spain, Mexico, and several other regions. In most countries outside the US and Canada, you can live stream the games through the NBA League Pass. Subscription prices vary by region.

If you find yourself traveling through an area where you're unable to access your usual streaming options, you can still use them with the help of a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs are handy tech tools that let people temporarily change their virtual locations. A VPN is also a solid way to improve day-to-day cybersecurity and online privacy. Since the services we've highlighted require country-specific payment methods, this option will work best for those who are just traveling abroad at the moment.

NordVPN is our top recommendation right now. It's fast, easy to use, and has a 30-day money-back guarantee if you find that it's not what you're looking for. You can learn more about the service in our guide to the best VPNs. From now until June 9, you can use our exclusive code INSIDER for extra savings on one and two-year plans, thanks to a special NordVPN deal.
