How to Watch Every Lakers Game for the Lowest Price
In Market
If you live in the Lakers’ market, here’s our recommendation on the best way to watch every game this season:
- Sign up for Spectrum SportsNet+ through the NBA website.
- This costs $20 per month and will get you every Lakers game that is on Spectrum SportsNet, which is most of them.
- For any games on NBC or Peacock (that aren’t also on Spectrum), sign up for a free seven-day trial of Peacock “Premium Plus” via Prime Video
- If you don’t have a free trial available, the least expensive alternative is Peacock “Premium” for $11 per month.
- For any games on ABC or ESPN (that aren’t also on Spectrum), sign up for a free trial of Fubo “Pro” or DirecTV Stream “Entertainment” or YouTube TV “Base Plan” or Hulu + Live TV.
- If you don’t have any free trials available, the least expensive alternative for ESPN games is a Sling Orange Day Pass for $5.
- If you don’t have any free trials available, the least expensive alternative for ABC games via ESPN Unlimited for $30 per month.
- For any Prime Video-exclusive games, you can sign up for a sign up for a free trial of either Amazon Prime or Prime Video by itself.
- If you don’t have a free trial available, the least expensive alternative is Prime Video for $9 per month.
So, depending on the free trials you have available, and the way you time them out, that’s as low as $60 to watch every remaining Lakers game from in market.
