It's time for the 2024-2025 NBA season, and fans can watch some of the games live on Max. The streamer is officially in the business of live-streaming sports thanks to a partnership with the Bleacher Report and the B/R Sports Add-on. With access to this feature, Max subscribers can not only watch certain NBA games but also specific NHL games, MLB games and more sporting events. The best part about this is for now, the add-on is free (but that's subject to change in the future).

When you consider Max already is the streaming home to HBO's original content and shows and documentaries from OWN, ID and TLC as well as countless other programs from yesteryear, Max may make for a good investment. Here's everything we know about the 2024-2025 NBA season on Max.

How to watch the NBA on Max

In order to watch the NBA games on Max, all you need to do is have a subscription to Max. Any tier will do, as for a limited time, the B/R Sports add-on is included with any Max subscription for free. While we aren’t certain when Max will start to charge for the add-on option, when that occurs, the price will be an extra $9.99 per month.

Again, there are several subscription tiers for Max (sans add-on). The lowest-priced option with ads is $9.99/month, while the highest-priced option, which is "ultimate" ad-free, runs $20.99/month. Should you want to save 16% on your bill, you can opt to pay a yearly subscription cost all at once.
