Basketball’s back! The 2023–24 NBA Season is poised to be one for the record books. Can the Denver Nuggets repeat? How will newly restructured teams, like the Phoenix Suns, fare? What will the first season for young stars like Victor Wembanyama and Brandon Miller look like?

Here’s a guide to the apps you’ll need to watch the games and follow the scores on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.

The NBA app puts iPhone-friendly video front and center. Tap through vertical video snippets of game highlights and recaps, immerse yourself in stats, follow favorite teams and players, and more. Plus, stay up to date with real-time scores from your Lock Screen with Live Activities.
