The 78th NBA regular season games began on October 24, 2023, and will end by April 14, 2024. The NBA app is the official platform to stream the 2023-24 NBA games live using NBA League Pass. Unfortunately, I couldn’t install the NBA app on my Apple TV since it runs with tvOS 13.0 or later. So, I used the AirPlay method to stream the NBA games on Apple TV using my iPhone and Mac.
In this article, I will teach you how to AirPlay NBA on an Apple TV or AirPlay 2-compatible TV.
