If you do plan on watching any of the games that are not available to watch live on Peacock, then you will need a live TV plan with access to NBC or USA Network.

In general, Sling TV is the cheapest option for access to both of these channels (through the Sling Blue package) and new subscribers can currently get half-off their first month.

For reference, Sling TV doesn’t offer NBC in all locations in the US, so it is worth checking availability before signing up.
