The quarterfinals, semifinals, and final will be archived on ESPN3, but it will not be shown live. All of those games can be seen live on NBATV, however.
Sage Steele will host desk coverage beginning on Monday. She’ll be joined by P.J. Carlesimo, Avery Johnson, Tom Penn, and Chris Broussard throughout the week.
The NBA is getting quite a bit of coverage nationally during the offseason, and it looks like it will continue up until the season begins with free agency, the NBA Summer League, and the upcoming FIBA world championships in August.
Better yet, for those that have access to ESPN3, they’ll be able to watch all the former Cyclones compete live.
