And, wait, there’s more! According to the NBA, the deal with NextVR includes highlights, condensed games, and full game recaps in VR on NextVR after the game. If you don’t have an NBA League Pass, you better get one because you need to be an NBA League Pass subscriber to stream these games each week. Additionally, you’ll do so within NextVR’s app for Gear VR, not within the League Pass app.

Have another VR headset? NextVR also says that other VR headsets will be supported later this season. So, you won’t need to run out and buy a NextVR headset unless you just can’t wait to see an NBA game in VR, and/or your team or favorite matchup is slated early in the season.
