On Tuesday, the NBA announced the launch of its reimagined global NBA App, billed as an all-in-one destination for NBA fans of every team. With entirely new personalization features, the NBA App will provide wall-to-wall content from every NBA game and feature social-style vertical video, unprecedented behind-the-scenes access to players and teams, new and existing shows and series, and access to the NBA vault for free.

The league’s direct-to-consumer subscription offerings — NBA League Pass and NBA TV — will be integrated into the new NBA App, giving fans the ability to watch live games and highlights and check scores, statistics, and standings, all in one place. For NBA League Pass subscribers, the live streams will feature higher video quality, lower streaming latency, and a seamless user experience for consuming live NBA content.

To celebrate the launch of the new app, the NBA is offering a special deal on League Pass. The standard package is now available for $14.99 per month ($99.99 for the full season) and the premium package for $19.99 per month ($129.99 for the full season). Subscribers will automatically receive the NBA TV direct-to-consumer offering as part of the new bundle.

“Launching our new NBA App and digital platform is a major milestone as we continue to build and strengthen our direct-to-consumer offerings,” said Chris Benyarko, NBA Executive Vice President, Direct-to-Consumer. “We are thrilled to deliver a reimagined product that will enhance and personalize the way NBA fans engage with the league on a daily basis.”
