How to watch Boston Celtics vs. Dallas Mavericks Game 4 without cable
If your cable subscription doesn't carry ABC or you've cut the cord with your cable company, you can still watch tonight's game. Below are the platforms on which you can watch today's game live.
Save $25 on Sling TV: The most cost-effective way to stream the Celtics vs. Mavericks game
One of the most cost-effective ways to stream today's game is through a subscription to Sling TV. To watch today's game, you'll need a subscription to the Blue tier, which includes access to your local network affiliate's live feed (excluding CBS).

To watch these games, plus PGA golf, UEFA Champions League and more live sports, we recommend you also subscribe to Paramount+ with Showtime. Paramount+ with Showtime costs $12 per month after a one-week free trial.
