How to Watch Mercury vs. Aces WNBA Finals Without Cable
Five Mercury vs. Aces WNBA Finals games will air on ESPN, and two will air on ABC. If you don’t have cable, we recommend getting a subscription to a streaming service that carries both channels. Here are four of the best options:
editor’s Pick
DirecTV
➤ $69.99/month
➤ Five-day free trial
➤ Up to 185+ channels
DirecTV is the best cable streaming option for sports fans, and it carries ESPN and ABC in a few packages for WNBA Finals livestreams. The most affordable plan with both channels is the MySports package, which costs $69.99 a month after a five-day free trial.
Free trial
Fubo
➤ $55.99/month
➤ Five-day free trial
➤ Up to 300+ channels
Fubo also carries both ESPN and ABC, plus up to 300+ other channels for more sports and entertainment. Get a five-day free trial to start before pricing kicks in at $55.99 a month for the service’s most affordable package.
ESPN Unlimited

➤ BUNDLE DEAL: get Disney+ and Hulu for free for 12 months when you sign up for ESPN Unlimited
ESPN’s new Unlimited app will let you livestream every WNBA Finals game. The service costs $29.99 a month, but does not offer a free trial. Right now, you can also get the ESPN Unlimited, Disney+, and Hulu bundle for the same price of $29.99 a month for 12 months, instead of $35.99 a month.
Sling
➤ $45.99/month
➤ Short-term passes available
