A new era begins for viewers of NBA hoops. The league made a monster 11-year, $76 billion media rights deal that puts national TV and streaming games on every night of the week.

NBC, which aired NBA games from 1990-2002, is back in (and so is its “Roundball Rock” theme song). TNT, which has broadcast games since 1988, is out. Here’s a rundown of the new TV landscape:

ABC/ESPN

Wednesday night doubleheaders air on ESPN all season long, and ESPN airs a first ever Thanksgiving Eve tripleheader November 26. Christmas Day games remain on ABC/ESPN, and ESPN adds Friday night games to its schedule beginning Jan. 16. Saturday night games return to ABC on January 24, and Sunday matinee matchups on ABC/ESPN start February 1. Playoff games continue to air on ABC/ESPN, and ABC keeps exclusive coverage of the NBA Finals.

NBC

In addition to the season tipoff, NBC airs Coast 2 Coast Tuesday games in primetime generally featuring one game airing in the Eastern/Central time zones and a different game appearing in the Mountain/Pacific time zones. NBC adds Sunday primetime games beginning February 1, and picks up coverage of NBA All-Star Weekend February 13-15 and select playoff games starting in April.

Peacock

NBC’s streaming service has Peacock NBA Monday doubleheaders starting October 27, plus simulcasts of all NBC’s games and the November 1 game in Mexico City between Dallas and Detroit. Peacock and NBC combine to televise a Martin Luther King Jr. Day quadrupleheader January 19.

Prime Video

Catch Friday night doubleheaders throughout the season, plus the knockout rounds and championship of the Emirates NBA Cup in December. Prime adds various Thursday and Saturday matchups starting midseason, plus January games in Berlin and London. Select Play-In Tournament and playoff games also air on Prime.
