Watch on DIRECTV STREAM
You won’t miss any games with DIRECTV STREAM, though it’s the priciest option on the list. To get all four channels for the ACC men’s basketball tournament on DIRECTV STREAM, you’re opting for the Choice, Ultimate, or Premier plan, which starts at $108.99 per month. Though that also means you’re getting a robust channel package and unlimited cloud DVR, it is a hefty price tag.
In addition to ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, and ACC Network, you’ll also get more sports channels like FS1, Golf Channel, MLB Network, and more.
Watch on Fubo
Fubo, also known as a sports lover’s paradise, is a great streaming option for basketball fans. Not only does it have all you need for the ACC tournament, but it has plenty more. Starting at $79.99 per month, plans include 180+ channels with news, sports, movies, and more.
You’ll want to pick the Elite plan (for $89.99 per month) to get the right channels for the tournament, but that also means you’ll get access to ESPNEWS, NBA TV, Pac-12 Network, and more, in addition to ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, and ACC Network.
Watch on Hulu + Live TV
For a well-rounded streaming experience, you can’t go wrong with Hulu+Live TV. Not only does it include all four channels that you need for postseason action — starting at $76.99 per month for the ad-supported plan — but it’s so much more than just a live TV service. First of all, you do get Hulu’s 85+ channel selection. Beyond that, you also get Hulu’s on-demand library, which includes movies, TV, documentaries, and more. This also includes award-winning original content from Hulu.
Plus, a Hulu + Live TV subscription includes a subscription to Disney Plus and ESPN Plus. That gives you access to all of Disney’s library, as well as ESPN Plus’ content, so there’s no shortage of sports for you to enjoy.
Watch on Sling TV
Sling TV is your best budget-friendly option to stream the ACC men’s basketball tournament. If you want to watch the games for the lowest possible cost, you can get all four necessary channels for just $51 per month with Sling TV. Sling Orange includes ESPN and ESPN2, and the Sports Extra add-on for $11 per month will get you the ACC Network and ESPNU. For more channel offerings, you can do Sling Orange & Blue starting at $55 per month, but the best deal is Sling Orange and Sports Extra.
Sling Orange only includes about 30+ channels and 50 hours of cloud DVR, but it’s a solid choice for people who don’t need anything beyond the core channels they’re looking for each month. Plus, with that extra sports add-on, you’re also getting Big Ten Network, MLB Network, SEC Network, and more.
Watch on YouTube TV
YouTube TV includes all four channels that will show ACC tournament gameplay. This streamlined streaming service has just one base plane, so it’s very straightforward — and it has plenty to offer. In addition to ACC Network, ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNU, sports fans can also enjoy FS1, FS2, NFL Network, NBA TV, and many more channels for year-round sports viewing. Plus, there’s unlimited cloud DVR to make sure you’re storing your games while you’re not home (or in case you want to hang on to a game to watch again and again) — all for $72.99 per month.
In addition to the 100+ channels, YouTube TV also gives customers some other features like Stats View, so you can check up on your favorite players during the season (right on the screen) to see just how well they’re doing. The perfect feature for postseason play.
