NBA preseason games — October HD streams

NBA preseason 2025-26 schedule

NBA preseason runs early-to-mid October — typically October 1-15 for regular preseason, with an extra international showcase or two (Mexico City, London, Tokyo) some years. Each team plays 4-6 preseason games against rotating opponents.

Coverage: NBA TV airs ~10-15 marquee preseason games (top draft picks, returning stars, signature matchups). ESPN picks up 5-6. Team RSNs carry the rest as part of their regular contract.

SDZ at $39.95/mo includes ESPN, NBA TV (where licensed), and most regional sports networks. AccuViewTV chat support confirms specific RSN availability.

Why preseason matters for fantasy and dynasty

Preseason is the first look at: (1) draft picks in NBA-pace defense; (2) rotation experiments (new coach? new starters?); (3) injury status for veterans (rested or playing limited minutes?). Fantasy drafters and dynasty league managers parse preseason for late-round upside picks.

For casual fans, preseason is meaningless win-loss-wise but valuable for seeing the team’s chemistry, the rookie’s confidence, the coach’s experiments.

SDZ delivers preseason broadcasts in HD with the same broadcast crew (often) as regular-season games.

International preseason: Mexico City, London, Tokyo

The NBA’s international preseason showcase typically includes 1-2 cities per year. 2025-26 schedule includes games in Macau, Manila, and Berlin (international expansion focus).

International games air on ESPN or NBA TV, plus the international broadcast partner in the host city. SDZ’s lineup covers the US-side broadcast.

For watching from outside the US, SDZ runs anywhere with internet — international fans tune into US-broadcast NBA games via SDZ during international travel.

Why SDZ for preseason: low-stakes, low-cost trial

If you’re SDZ-curious but not yet ready to commit: preseason is the low-stakes window to test the membership. October at $39.95 covers all preseason games + the season opener (typically last week of October).

Cancel after preseason if SDZ isn’t a fit. Stay on for the full season if it is.
