Greece
Greece is the first country on the list that combines online streaming and traditional TV channels to provide the best viewing experience for basketball fans in the country. NOVA Sports and all 12 of the group's satellite channels combine schedules to broadcast all EuroLeague games in Greece.
As part of the NOVA group, the channels are accessible through an EON platform subscription. In order to enjoy a full EuroLeague experience, fans have to purchase an EON+ plan for €25.30 a month, as the basic €11-a-month plan only features two of the 12 NOVA Sports channels.

Israel
Israel's situation is the most complicated of all countries on the list. EuroLeague games are being broadcasted on the 5 Sport channel network. However, only select matches of the tournament are being shown each week, besides all Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv games.
The network features 5 channels regular channels -- Sport, Live, Gold, Plus, Stars -- and an additional 4K channel. The first two of the list, Sport and Live, are usually available with regular TV packages.
The other four have to be purchased as a Premium Sports add-on in any of the four main TV providers - HOT, yes, Cellcom TV, or Partner TV.
