Prime Video is the viewing service

Open the NBA game in Prime Video and confirm eligible access. There is no numbered DIRECTV channel for a Prime Video-exclusive game. A general DIRECTV package does not replace the required streaming entitlement.

If you plan to watch on a television connected to DIRECTV equipment, confirm the Prime Video app is supported and that it is signed into the right account. A supported app, a Prime membership and a separate add-on are different things; use the event’s current access screen before paying again.

Do not use the October 27 channel assignment

The earlier Blazers–Lakers guide covers a different meeting. NBC/Peacock information for that completed game does not establish where the November 6 NBA Cup game airs. Match both the date and the event in your guide.

Before tip-off

  1. Check the date, opponent and start time in the live guide.
  2. Confirm the channel or app is included in your account.
  3. Test playback on the device you intend to use.
  4. Allow extra recording time if your service supports it.

For equipment, see our Gemini device guide. Schedules and rights can change; check again near game day.
