About

What happens when National Basketball Association goes down

National Basketball Association is the league's official app and website for live games and scores, and fans and fantasy players lean on it during game nights. An outage interrupts live video and score checks, and the status above tracks whether user problem reports are above their usual level in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours; this site does not ping or monitor the service itself.

Live video is where trouble tends to show first: a League Pass stream stalls on the loading spinner or drops back to the game list with a playback error. Score updates and stats go stale after that, so the box score lags behind the broadcast and team pages hang on refresh. Sign-in can fail before a stream starts. Problems are often partial or regional: one platform can fail while the web scoreboard still loads, and reports can cluster by region.

Questions

National Basketball Association FAQ

Is National Basketball Association down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether problem reports for the service are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Test another network and a second device. If the same page or app fails there while other sites load, the trouble is likely on your side; if other people report the same symptom, the service is the better suspect.

Why does the NBA app show a playback error during a live game?

A playback error means the stream did not start or lost its connection. The cause can be the app or a blackout on that game, so close the app and try a second device. If the same live game fails on both devices, check whether the game is blacked out in your area.

Why does League Pass log me out on my TV?

The TV app can lose your session after a password change or an app update. Sign in again with your NBA ID, then clear the TV app cache or reinstall it if the login loops back to the start. On a shared TV, sign out of the other profile first so the device can store your session.

Why did League Pass charge me after I canceled?

A cancellation can stop the next renewal without reversing a charge that was already scheduled, and store billing can lag behind the account page. Check the cancellation confirmation from the store you used and the subscription status on your NBA account. If the dates do not line up, dispute the charge with that store and keep the receipt.

Why is a local game blacked out on League Pass?

It follows blackout rules, so a game shown on a local or national network can be unavailable in the app even when your internet works. The restriction depends on your location and the broadcast rights for that game. Check the game's broadcast listing and try a different network only if the listing shows no local carrier.

How we track National Basketball Association

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for National Basketball Association, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for National Basketball Association, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. National Basketball Association doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
