FROM DIRECTV:
Never recall hearing this was a free preview, but even if it is a "package" type of change, you'll need Sports pack, Premier Base package, or NBA League Pass for this fall.
The nearly 8 month long NBA TV (HD version) free preview ends tonight.
Moving forward, customers with NBA League Pass and/or Sports Pack plus HD Access will continue to receive the channel as in the past.
Customers that have been receiving it in free preview (required only HD Access) will see a message that the channel is not available and must be ordered beginning tomorrow, July 1st.
