How to watch

4K is no problem for the Apple TV 4K; give it a 25 Mbps connection and a 4K TV and the sharper feeds hold up. Fast basketball rewards a wired connection more than a 4K badge. You pay once for the plan length you choose; nothing renews on its own, and you have 7 days to ask for a refund.

Getting more out of NBA

NBA on Apple TV 4K: Getting more out of NBA

  • Keep the league channel and the national networks next to each other in favorites.
  • Set the player buffer to a medium value, about 2 to 3 seconds, so short dips do not freeze a possession.
  • West Coast tip-offs can run past midnight Eastern; catch-up lets you finish the game the next morning.
  • Fast breaks expose a weak connection first. If the picture smears in transition, drop from 4K to HD.

Quick fixes mid-game
