Verizon Offers Live NBA Streaming on Go90

By Diana Goovaerts | February 8, 2016

Verizon sports fans just had another wish granted.

As a follow up to its November deal with the NBA, Verizon said Friday it will offer live out-of-market NBA games through NBA League Pass on its go90 mobile video app.

Starting today, registered go90 users will be able to gain access to the remaining games in the 2015-2016 NBA regular season through NBA League Pass’ $50 Half-Season subscription, the carrier said.

Verizon also said it will offer registered go90 users free access to up to five NBA League Pass games during the remainder of the season whether they have a pre-weekend or another NBA League Pass subscription.

The offering comes in the wake of a multi-year content and marketing deal between Verizon and the NBA that made the carrier the official wireless service provider of the NBA leagues. The deal was expected to bring exclusive NBA sports content to the go90 platform, including daily highlights, NBA series and live games through NBA League Pass.

But the NBA deal is just Verizon’s latest sports venture.

In September, the carrier announced that it was bringing free streaming of NFL games to all of its customers via the redesigned NFL Mobile app.

And even more NFL content may be on its way to Verizon.

Earlier this month, the NFL announced an expansion of its Thursday night football lineup to include ten games, and said it is in “active discussions” with prospective partners for over-the-top streaming rights for the matchups.

Given its existing connections with the NFL, Verizon is among those rumored to be in the running to secure those rights.

Whether they’re watching the NBA or something else, though, Verizon customers using go90 found out Friday that they will be able to watch content on the mobile video app without using up their data allowance.

According to Verizon, the move comes as part of go90’s participation in the carrier’s new FreeBee Data 360 sponsored data service and will be open to those with go90 version 1.4 or later.
