DIRECTV Deals for the 2026-27 NBA Season: What Each Offer Gets You
If you want the cheapest way into the 2026–27 NBA season on DIRECTV, the MySports Genre Pack is $49.99 for your first month (normally $64.99), and it carries ESPN, ESPN2 and NBA TV. If you need your team’s regional sports network too, the CHOICE package is $64.99 for the first month (normally $94.99). Those are DIRECTV’s new-customer prices as of October 15, 2026, before taxes and fees, five days before the regular season tips off on Tuesday, October 20.
This page compares the offers only. For game times, channels and your team’s local home, see our NBA on DIRECTV guide.

What the first two months really cost
A first-month deal matters less than month two, when the regular rate starts. Here is what each plan costs for October and November, before taxes, the Regional Sports Fee and any device lease:
| Plan | Month 1 | Month 2 | Two-month total |
|---|---|---|---|
| MySports | $49.99 | $64.99 | $114.98 |
| MySports + MyHome Team | $69.98 | $84.98 | $154.96 |
| CHOICE | $64.99 | $84.99 ($10 off through month 24) | $149.98 |
Our math from directv.com prices as of October 15, 2026. CHOICE month 2 reflects DIRECTV’s listed $10/mo. discount for months 2–24.
For a fan who only follows national games, MySports is the clear value. Once you add MyHome Team, CHOICE costs about $5 less over two months at the checked offers, and CHOICE brings 125+ channels instead of a sports-only lineup.
Which offer covers which games
- ESPN and ABC games: every plan above.
- NBC games: every plan, through your local NBC station where DIRECTV carries it.
- NBA TV games: MySports, CHOICE and higher. ENTERTAINMENT does not include NBA TV.
- Local team games on a regional sports network: CHOICE and higher, or MySports with MyHome Team.
- Peacock and Prime Video games: none of these plans. Both need their own subscription; the apps run on DIRECTV Gemini devices.
- Out-of-market games: NBA League Pass, sold separately. See our League Pass prices.
How to get the most from the deal
New customers get a five-day free trial first, so you can start before opening night and test the picture on your own internet. Check that your local ABC and NBC stations are available at your address, since local channels vary by market. Set a reminder before month two if you only want the promo period; there’s no annual contract, so you can cancel or switch plans.
