NextVR specializes in virtual reality live broadcasting, and has worked with major sporting organizations like the NBA, NFL, NHL, Nascar, and more to put you in the midst of the action right from the comfort of your home. This season, the company agreed to broadcast some 20 live NBA games in VR, straight to the NextVR app, which is available on Gear VR and Google’s Daydream View headset. And while you’d typically need to drop $99 on the NBA League Pass to see the action live in VR, the Spurs vs. Timberwolves game this Tuesday will be accessible for free.

Tune in to the NextVR app on your Gear VR or Daydream View headset on January 17th at 8:30PM ET to watch courtside, live in VR. Drop us a comment below to let us know who you’re rooting for.
