Cavaliers vs Bucks live stream: Can you watch the NBA game for free?

There is a lot of buzz circling tonight’s matchup between the Cleveland Cavaliers (26-16) and the Milwaukee Bucks (31-13). The Bucks are making a head coaching change mid-season after firing Adrian Griffin this week and bringing in Doc Rivers. Although Rivers has not coached his first official game as the Bucks head coach, it’s definitely an interesting news headline this week in the NBA. Joe Prunty remains the interim head coach for Milwaukee, as these two teams will face off for the fourth time this season. The Bucks are leading that series 2-1. The last loss to Milwaukee snapped an eight-game winning streak for Cleveland.

The match is about to stream, at 8:00 p.m. ET. If you’re looking for the right place to live stream this matchup, look no further, as we’ve got you covered on all the ways you can access the matchup between two of the Eastern Conference’s best online.

As for a free live stream for tonight’s matchup, unfortunately, there is not one. Fubo does have a free trial, but if you also happen to be signing up for NBA League Pass, unfortunately there is no free trial in terms of adding that subscription on. Another way of live streaming the game is through YouTube TV, but it is kind of the same scenario there. However, YouTube TV does offer the first three months of its service for ten dollars off the original monthly fee.
