The Phoenix Suns and Portland Trail Blazers kick off their preseason campaigns on Tuesday night with a matchup at the Moda Center. Neither squad made many big changes in the offseason, but with a slew of compelling young talent–Caleb Swanigan, Zach Collins, Marquese Chriss, Josh Jackson, Dragan Bender–it should still be a fun one to watch.
The game is scheduled to start at 10:30 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on NBA TV. If you don’t have cable or can’t get to a TV, you can watch a live stream via one of the following cable-free, live-TV services:
Fubo TV: “Fubo Premier” package
