The NBL returns for the 2023/24 season and you're able to watch every game live.
The Sydney Kings are the current title holders after winning back-to-back titles and they have a strong case to 3-peat.
In 2023/24, the NBL season will consist of 140 games spread across 20 rounds.
How to watch the 2023/24 NBL season
Every game of the 2023/24 NBL season will be shown live on ESPN.
That means Foxtel iQ, Foxtel Now, Kayo and Fetch TV are all options for watching NBL games.
There is also limited coverage on free-to-air television with 10 Peach and 10 play.
For the 2023/24 regular season, games in the 2pm and 4pm (AEDT) timeslots on Sundays will be live and free on 10 Peach and 10 play.
Kayo will also screen those Sunday games at no cost on Kayo Freebies.
That means you'll be able to watch some games for free, but you won't be able to choose which teams as it will only be whoever happens to be playing on the Sunday afternoon.
We've broken down the season to show how each team fares in getting free-to-air coverage throughout the season.

We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product.

When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
