The 2026 NBA postseason has had some notable shifts in where games are broadcast as compared to 2025. Peacock and Prime Video now host exclusive NBA playoff contests, and if you’ve been having trouble justifying adding Peacock to your lineup to watch games this season, DIRECTV has a great deal for you. For a limited time, new DIRECTV subscribers can sign up to stream any of the service’s Signature channel packages and get the Movies Extra + Peacock Premium add-on pack free for their first two months of service!
