NBA to stream all 15 games for free day before Election Day

On Monday, Nov. 7, fans will be able to stream every NBA game for free via the NBA app, per Shams Charania.

The NBA earlier announced it will stream games for the projected top-two picks in next year's NBA Draft — Victor Wembanyama and Scoot Henderson — via its app for free.

The NBA is pushing its fans to vote on Nov. 8 with all 30 teams in action the night before Election Day, which is a collective off-day.

Before the season, players and owners came to an agreement to not have any games on Election Day to ensure all focus is on getting people to the polls to cast their ballots.

NBA Players Association president C.J. McCollum helped lead the effort for there not to be games on Nov. 8 and expressed the importance of voting in a video released late last month.

"It was one of my priorities to make sure that we put an emphasis on voting, make sure we put an emphasis on the importance of voting and allowing people to have time to do it," said McCollum.

Before the vote on Election Day, we'll have a chance to exercise our right to some free NBA basketball. 

We should take advantage of both.

To find your voting location, visit vote.org.
