NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament begins on Tuesday, March 18, 2025 (3/18/25) with the First Four round at the University of Dayton Arena in Dayton, Ohio.

Sports fans can also catch live games for the NCAA March Madness on TNT Sports (which includes TNT, TBS and truTV). Unless you have cable, though, your viewing options are limited. Cord-cutters don’t need to spend hundreds of dollars on a cable package in order to get access to basketball games and other TNT content — there are affordable streaming options such as live TV streamers that’ll give you instant access and for a fraction of the price.

Every March Madness game will be broadcasted on TruTV, TNT, TBS, and CBS. Fans can watch each of these channels for free online by using the free trial offered by DirecTV Stream. Alternatively, fans can use Sling to watch every game on TruTV, TNT, and TBS.
