How to watch the Nuggets from Denver

The two best in-market options for live streaming Nuggets games from Denver, and across the Mountain West, are fuboTV and DIRECTV STREAM “Choice.”

Watch the Nuggets on DIRECTV STREAM

DIRECTV STREAM boasts the largest lineup of regional sports networks of any live TV streaming service, however, users are required to upgrade to the “Choice” package to gain access. To watch Altitude Sports on DIRECTV STREAM, sports fans in Denver will have to pay for the more expensive “Choice” plan.

DIRECTV STREAM also carries KCNC-TV CBS 4 Denver for watching the Broncos, and AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain for watching Rockies games.

Watch the Nuggets on fuboTV

fuboTV carries both AT&T Sportsnet Rocky Mountain, for watching the Jazz, Rockies, and Golden Knights, and Altitude Sports for watching the Avalanche and Nuggets.

The downside with fuboTV for Nuggets fans is the lack of TNT and TBS, which leaves holes in coverage for marquee NBA and NHL games.

Watching the Nuggets FAQ

How can I watch the Nuggets out-of-market?

There are several good options for watching Nuggets games out-of-market. If you don’t live in Denver, or the mountain west region, you can watch the Nuggets out-of-market with NBA League Pass. YouTube TV, Sling, fuboTV, and DIRECTV STREAM all offer add-ons for NBA League Pass, or you can buy a subscription à la carte on Amazon.

Can I watch the Nuggets game on AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain?

No, you can’t watch the Nuggets on AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain. AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain carries Las Vegas Golden Knights, Colorado Rockies, and Utah Jazz games for fans in the mountain west, but not Nuggets games. To watch the Nuggets in-market, you need to sign up for DIRECTV STREAM, which is the only platform that carries Altitude Sports.

Can I watch the Nuggets game on ESPN+?

No, you can’t watch Nuggets games on ESPN+. One of the drawbacks of the ESPN+ platform is the lack of NBA and NFL games.

Can I watch the Nuggets on Sling TV?

Not if you are a local fan in the Denver TV market, or in the mountain west region. Sling TV doesn’t carry Altitude Sports, however, you can watch the Nuggets on Sling TV out-of-market by adding NBA League Pass.
