Tuesday night marks the beginning of the 2016-17 NBA season, with the reigning champion Cleveland Cavaliers hosting the first game of the season. LeBron James, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love and the Cavs host the New York Knicks, with the game scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m. Eastern on TNT. The start time was moved up a half-hour to accommodate Game 1 of the World Series between the Cleveland Indians and Chicago Cubs, and the Cavaliers will receive their rings prior to tipoff.

The ring ceremony and unveiling of the banner will be shown live on TNT, which will begin its coverage with a pregame show starting at 6:00 p.m. Tuesday night marks a new beginning for the Knicks, as Carmelo Anthony and Kristaps Porzingis have a new head coach in Jeff Hornacek and some new teammates in Derrick Rose, Joakim Noah, Courtney Lee and Brandon Jennings.

Looking for a live stream of the game? There are a handful of options available, including a free trial from Sling TV.

Here’s a roundup of the options:


If You’re in the United States & Don’t Have a Cable or Satellite Log-In

On the Web:

If you’re in the United States and don’t have access to a cable or satellite log-in, you can watch the game through Sling TV, an online streaming service that provides access to select channels for a monthly fee. The service’s Orange package, which includes TNT, costs $20 a month. But if you’re looking for a way to watch the game for free, you can do so with Sling’s free 7-day trial.

To sign up for Sling, follow these steps:

1. Click here to sign up for Sling TV. You’ll need to enter your credit card information when signing up, but if you cancel your subscription before the trial period ends, you will not be charged.

You’ll also have the option of selecting Sling’s Blue, and/or selecting “add-ons,” all of which come with a monthly fee but are included in the free trial. The Orange package is the only one that includes TNT.
