Watch Every Warriors Game This Season

Don’t have cable? This article will explain how you can stream the next Warriors game and every Golden State Warriors game this season, no matter where you live.

  • Golden State Warriors TV Market: throughout the San Francisco Bay Area
  • Best Solution when inside their TV Market: Watch on NBC Sports Bay Area through the Hulu Live TV streaming service (1-week free trial). NBC Sports Bay area will air the majority of Warriors games, but around 10 games this season will air on ABC, ESPN, and TNT. Those channels are included with your Hulu Live TV subscription.
  • Best Solution when living Outside the Warriors TV Market: Watch nearly all Warriors games on NBA League Pass (sign up online). The Warriors have a few nationally televised games. Those games will air on ESPN, ABC, or TNT, and won’t be on NBA League Pass. Read on to learn how to watch those nationally televised games.

What Channel Are The Warriors On

Where you can watch the Golden State Warriors depends on whether or not you live inside the Golden State Warriors TV market (throughout the San Francisco Bay Area). If you live inside that market, you can watch Warriors games on NBC Sports Bay Area. However, if you live outside that market, you will need ESPN, ABC, NBA TV, and TNT. Let’s take a look at your options based on where you live.

Watching Warriors Games In Market

If you live in the Warriors TV market, you can watch the Warriors on NBC Sports Bay Area, the Warriors regional sports network. If you live in the Warriors broadcast areas, I recommend either Hulu Live TV, DIRECTV STREAM, or YouTube TV since they all carry NBC Sports Bay Area, TNT, and ABC. While fubo TV carries NBC Sports Bay Area, they lack TNT so I would go with the other options.

Hulu Live TV

Hulu Live TV offers NBC Sports Bay Area at the cost of $76.99 per month, you can sign up here. The service also provides ESPN, ABC, and TNT, so you can watch some nationally televised NBA games. You pay month to month with no contract, and if you cancel within your free trial period, you will not be charged. The service supports iOS, Android, Fire TV, Chromecast, Apple TV, Roku, and more. The base price includes a cloud DVR and streams on two devices at once, but the option to upgrade to unlimited streams. Hulu Live TV includes the Hulu streaming library. (see our review of Hulu Live TV)

DIRECTV STREAM

DIRECTV STREAM

DIRECTV STREAM is a live streaming service that carries NBC Sports Bay Area for those living in their broadcast region. However, you must subscribe to their “Choice” package for $108.99 per month. You can sign up online. They don’t force you into a contract, and you can cancel at any time. DIRECTV STREAM also carries ESPN, ABC, NBA TV, and TNT, all of which air nationally televised NBA games.

The service also includes a cloud DVR service and allows you to simultaneously stream to an unlimited number of devices in the home, and up to 3 outside the home.  DIRECTV STREAM is supported on Apple TV, Chromecast, Fire TV, iOS, Android, Roku, and more. See our review of DIRECTV STREAM for more details on this streaming service.

youtube tv

YouTube TV also provides NBC Sports Bay Area in the Warrriors market. They also have TNT and ABC in their base package for $72.99 per month. The live streaming service also includes a DVR and supports Android, iOS, Apple TV, Fire TV, Chromecast, and more. Like the other services, YouTube TV offers a free trial, cloud DVR, local broadcast channels, and many other features. Please read our review of YouTube TV for more details on their service.

Watching Warriors Games Outside of Their TV Market

If you live outside the Warriors market, then most games will be available with a subscription to NBA League Pass. The exception is Warriors games nationally broadcast on ESPN, ABC, and TNT. To watch those games, you need a streaming service that carries those channels; like DIRECTV STREAM, Hulu Live TV, or YouTube TV. I cover these services below.

NBA League Pass

To watch most Warriors games if you live outside the Warriors TV market, you will need NBA League Pass. NBA League Pass will show every Warriors game that isn’t exclusively airing nationally on ESPN or TNT. NBA League Pass also provides access to NBA TV, so you are covered when they broadcast the occasional Warriors game.

nba league pass

NBA League Pass provides three ways to subscribe:

  • Team Pass – Watch live, out-of-market games for the Golden State Warriors for $13.99 per month or $89.99 per year.
  • League Pass – Watch live, out-of-market games for the Golden State Warriors and every other team for $14.99 per month or $99.99 per year.
  • Premium League Pass – Watch live, out-of-market games for every team for $22.99 per month or $149.99 per year. (commercial-free)

Keep in mind that there are blackout rules in effect. Games won’t be aired live if:

  • They are being broadcast on ESPN, ABC, or TNT. (NBA TV is included with a subscription to NBA League pass.
  • They are being broadcast where you live on the regional sports network’s broadcast area that owns the rights to air NBA games in your area. You will need a streaming service that carries your regional sports network like DIRECTV STREAM (sign up), to watch those games.

Warriors Games on ESPN, NBA TV, and TNT.

DIRECTV STREAM or YouTube TV carries TNT, NBA TV, and ESPN. However, NBA TV is included with a subscription to NBA League Pass. Therefore, if you have League Pass your options also include Hulu Live TV as an option since they carry TNT and ESPN. One of those services in addition to a subscription to NBA League Pass will provide live access to every Warriors game if you live outside their TV market.

DIRECTV STREAM

DIRECTV STREAM Choice includes TNT, ABC, ESPN, and NBA TV and costs $108.99 per month. You can take advantage of their 5-day free trial. and they don’t force you into a contract, so you can cancel at any time. The service also includes a cloud DVR service and allows you to simultaneously stream to an unlimited number of devices in the home, and up to 3 outside the home.  DIRECTV STREAM is supported on Apple TV, Chromecast, Fire TV, iOS, Android, Roku, and more.
