The number of viewers across NBC/Peacock, ESPN/ABC, Prime Video and NBA TV is up 85% vs. the same point last year.

Bennett Durando: Tonight is a nationally televised game in Philly (Peacock), but the NBA can’t fine the Nuggets for resting Jamal Murray because he doesn’t meet the “star player” criteria outlined by the Player Participation Policy. He has not been named to an All-Star or All-NBA team, for now.
Tom Orsborn: Per NBA: Tuesday, January 13, 2026 The San Antonio at Oklahoma City game will now be televised by NBC/Peacock.
The NBA brought on NBC and Amazon as new partners, while parting ways with Warner Bros. Discovery for the first time in more than two decades. The deal allowed for 75 more national games this year with the addition of NBC’s over-the-air channel, and exclusive streamed games on Peacock and Prime Video for the first time. But it’s also led to fragmentation and rising costs for fans hoping to catch all NBA games. The table above shows that a monthly subscription across all platforms needed to watch NBA games will cost nearly $130 before tax (YouTube TV is an example of a live-TV service, comparable to cable). It will cost nearly $1,000 for an eight-month subscription, which would encompass a full NBA season, and nearly $1,400 for annual subscriptions across the four platforms.
NBA Communications: More than 87 million people in the U.S. have watched NBA games this season across NBC/Peacock, ESPN, Amazon Prime Video and NBA TV, the most viewers in 15 years and up 89% vs. last year. (Excludes 2011-12 season which began on Christmas Day.)
Snoop Dogg will be a game analyst on Peacock’s Los Angeles Clippers versus Golden State Warriors game on Monday, Jan. 5, sources briefed on the move told The Athletic.

Snoop will attend the pregame meetings and then observe the first half before putting on his headset.
