Streaming services · Sports bars · TV channels · Blackout info
Lakers fans in Nashville, rejoice! As a Los Angeles Lakers fan in Music City, you are considered fully out-of-market, which is excellent news for your viewing options. This means you will NOT face any local blackout restrictions for Lakers games on NBA League Pass, making it the most comprehensive way to catch every single regular season game. While NBA League Pass covers the vast majority of games, nationally televised Lakers matchups on channels like TNT, ESPN, and ABC will still require access through a live TV streaming service (such as Sling TV, Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, or DirecTV Stream) or a cable/satellite subscription. Some games may also stream on Max (for TNT games) and ESPN+.
