Yet another day of ongoing contract disagreements between Disney and YouTube TV means subscribers are still missing out on live sports and other content.
Reports suggest that the two parties are significantly apart in negotiations, with no resolution in sight. As a result, channels owned by Disney, like ABC and ESPN, remain inaccessible to subscribers.
Fans are already feeling the pinch as the weekend college football games and this week’s Monday Night Football are off limits. Tonight, ESPN is set to air a doubleheader featuring the Minnesota Timberwolves against the New York Knicks.

How to Watch the Knicks on ESPN for Free Without YouTube TV
If you’re a YouTube TV subscriber eager to see the Knicks play, there are a few options available. Some live TV streaming services offer access to the channels that YouTube TV no longer provides.
DIRECTV is giving a 5-day free trial that includes all the impacted channels, with plans starting at $49.99 for the first month. This provides access to a range of sports, including the NFL, NBA, NHL, and college football, along with regional sports networks.
