NBA league pass and New Orleans Pelicans team broadcast
I can't see any of the New Orleans Pelicans broadcast as an option in the Houston area market through my league pass subscription. My only viewing option to watch is through the team they are playing's broadcast.
My son's in L.A.'s NBA League Pass on YouTube Tv provides him with both options.

Hi, @epbarrois. If the New Orleans Pelicans games aren't on national channels, you likely won't get the New Orleans broadcast on NBA League Pass. The broadcast rights and availability of a game are determined by the leagues, associations, and networks that buy the rights to show individual games. Veilka, DIRECTV Community Specialist

Hi Veilka, DIRECTV Community Specialist
This has not been the case in the past several years. I have always had the option to view both teams Pelicans and other teams broadcast.
Also, the fact YouTube TV's league pass provides both options is telling me this is an issue with DirecTV and the New Orleans Pelicans broadcast rights.

I was wondering the same thing I’m in North Carolina and I can’t get the New Orleans broadcast on my satellite box, but I can on the NBA app

Yes, I’m in Austin. Have always been able to watch in previous years. Every other team’s broadcast is available. We are NOT IN THE NEW ORLEANS market so why can’t we see the broadcast??? We are having to watch through the app but we don’t get pre and post game anymore. Direct TV cannot explain. This comment here does not explain it either. Are you saying the Pelicans broadcasting is deliberately not allowing us to watch the game? Why weren’t we told this so we could cancel our subscription. It’s too late now.
