The Milwaukee Bucks are the NBA champions and have a star-studded roster featuring some of the world's most talented players in the sport of basketball. Led by Giannis Antetokounmpo, this Milwaukee Bucks side is sure to make a deep run in the playoffs once again this year. So if you are an NBA fan, they are one of the teams you must watch this season.

The Milwaukee Bucks made history last season by winning the second-ever NBA title in the franchise's history. It was an incredible achievement from a team that is not among the most popular in the NBA, and it has gained wider popularity in recent years thanks to the efforts of Greek Freak Giannis Antetokounmpo and his teammates.

A quick look at the Milwaukee Bucks roster will show you that they have some of the NBA's most widely known names in their ranks. In addition to Giannis, you will also get to watch the likes of Khris Middleton, Jrue Holiday, Bobby Portis, Brook Lopez, and several other big names in action.

So if you are ready to watch the Bucks' defense of the NBA championship, we have all the information you need on how to see their games this season live without cable. Follow our guide, if you are interested in how to watch every NBA game this season.

Which Channels to Watch Milwaukee Bucks Games On?

The TV coverage of the NBA games can be a bit complicated at times, especially if you have never seen it before. Games are broadcast on so many channels, and the Milwaukee Bucks are no different. You can watch all Milwaukee Bucks games live depending on the schedule on various channels, including Bally Sports Wisconsin, ESPN, NBA TV, TNT, and ABC. You can also live stream the games on several live TV platforms, which we will take a look at later below.

For the precise Milwaukee Bucks schedule and information on which channel will broadcast which game, you can go to the NBA website.

How to Watch Milwaukee Bucks In-Market Games?

If you are a Milwaukee Bucks fan living in the state of Wisconsin, you are in luck because almost all of their games will be shown live on the Bally Sports Wisconsin network. This is the only channel that will broadcast the in-market games featuring the Milwaukee Bucks.

DirecTV Stream

If you would like to view these games live without cable (and while you're on the go), you are in luck because the DirecTV Stream includes Bally Sports Wisconsin as part of its pack. In fact, it is the only streaming service that has the channel. It has a total of four packages: Entertainment, Choice, Ultimate, and Premier, and a monthly subscription costs between $69.99 and $139.99, depending on the package.

In addition to the Bally Sports Wisconsin, DirecTV Stream will also give you access to channels that broadcast nationally televised games like ESPN, TNT, and NBA TV. So pretty much every game featuring the Milwaukee Bucks will be available on it, while the NBA League Pass can be purchased alongside it as an add-on.

How to Watch Milwaukee Bucks Out-of-Market Games?

If you are a Milwaukee Bucks fan, but you do not live in the state of Wisconsin, it may be a bit tricky for you to watch all of their games, as you will not be able to have access to the Bally Sports Wisconsin network. Some of the games will be broadcast nationally on TV networks like ESPN, ABC, TNT, or NBA TV. However, those games will be few and far between, and in an 82 game regular season, not every game can be broadcast nationally.

But worry not, as we have all the streaming services and channels that you can use to watch Milwaukee Bucks games even if you are an out-of-market fan.
