Milwaukee Bucks guard Malik Beasley recently shared his thoughts on the team’s performance in Game 1 of the NBA playoffs. Beasley scored nine points and played solid defense against Tyrese Haliburton in the Bucks’ victory over the Indiana Pacers.
Unfortunately, some NBA fans, such as those supporting the Cleveland Cavaliers and Orlando Magic, were unable to watch their favorite teams play in the playoffs on Monday due to blackout restrictions. This left many fans frustrated and disappointed.
Blackout restrictions are in place because local and national broadcasters have exclusive rights to televise live games and content. These restrictions mean that fans in certain areas may be unable to watch certain games, like the Bucks-Pacers matchup, on TV.
The location of a fan is determined by their IP address or location services, which can lead to frustrating situations for those who are unable to watch their favorite teams due to blackout rules. However, there are options available for fans looking to catch their team in action during a blackout.
To watch NBA games during a blackout, fans can explore options like Bally Sports+, the streaming service offered by Bally Sports. Additionally, platforms like FuboTV offer packages that include Bally Sports and may provide a solution for fans looking to catch their team in action.
