What Antenna channels broadcast Nuggets & Avs for free?

Fix for missing Antenna channels and reception issues

Its exciting that everyone can now get 50+ Nuggets and Avs games for free with a TV Antenna. However, if you are missing the game since you cant get all the channels or have reception issues with your antenna this will cause endless frustration. There are a lot of cheap DIY antenna solutions that do not work well.

Unfortunately, there is still a lot of misinformation online about TV Antennas. The experts at StreamWise Solutions advise against relying on indoor antennas, as our experience has shown nothing but ongoing issues. Going cheap and buying an indoor antenna, even with a booster, often results in missing the channel(s) you care about most. And, pixilation typically results from poor signal, wrong power levels or interference. Read our best practices as it relates to TV Antennas. 

With our 14 years of experience, the experts at StreamWise Solutions can guarantee you get all of the major network Channels without issue. To watch all the Free Nuggets and Avs games without reception issues, we recommend installing an outdoor or attic HD TV Antenna.

Watch Nuggets and Avs with Altitude+ Streaming

Recommended Hardware to Live Stream Nuggets and Avs without issues

Before you switch to streaming, fix your Internet and Wi-Fi. The #1 complaint when streaming TV, especially live TV, is buffering issues or pixilation (low resolution) broadcasts. In some cases, it is the internet speed. But in most cases, it is the home’s Wi-Fi network or the receiving devices that are the root cause of the issue. Streaming live HD or 4K TV is much more resource intensive than on-demand streaming services like Netflix.

Here are our recommendations to ensure the best results with live streaming Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche games:

• Minimum 100+ MBPS High-Speed Internet.
• Whole-home Wi-Fi 6 Mesh Network with streaming device prioritization.
• Choose a Streaming Media Player with a high quality Wi-Fi 6 receiver. We recommend the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max (best resolution, Wi-Fi 6 compatibility, easy to install, portable and inexpensive).
• Top quality Streaming Service – request a consultation to find out which one is best for you. Although Altitude+ or fubo TV may seem to be best option, they do not have all the channels needed to get all the Nuggets and Avs games, so this will lead to higher monthly costs and stacking.
• Dont waste your time and sanity trying to do it yourself. Call the experts at StreamWise Solutions and do it right the first time – from consult, to install, training & support.

Summary of options to watch Nuggets, Avs and Altitude Sports

The short answer is it depends on what type of local sports fan you are and what your budget is.

1. Free TV Antenna – If you don’t want to pay $1000+ a year for a streaming service. An outdoor or attic Whole Home HD TV Antenna will get you 50+ free Nuggets and Avs games, including most playoff games in HD! You can add in an inexpensive Live Streaming service for a month if needed for more games (see #2). BONUS – ALL Denver Broncos NFL games are free in HD via a TV Antenna too!
2. Add a cheap Live Streaming service for a month – Some months you might be ok to pay a little to get more Nuggets and Avs games. During NBA and NHL season, you can add in a Live Streaming service like Sling to get more games. You can get any cable channel you like without a contract – ESPN, ESPN2, TNT, NBA TV, NHL Network & more. BONUS – Sling is month to month, so you can cancel it whenever you want!
3. Streaming Altitude Sports for the Avaholic or Nugget Nut (yes, I just made these up) – If you cant miss a single Nuggets or Avalanche game, but don’t want to pay $2000+ every, here is your best option. No need to get stuck in Contracts or Blackouts with old Cable or Satellite providers. Pay $120 / mo monthly to month and you can subscribe to one of the all inclusive Live Streaming Services that has Altitude Sports plus 100+ local and Cable channels. Compare Live Streaming options with Altitude Sports.

Conclusion: Best way to watch Nuggets & Avs for free

There are lots of different ways to watch the 2024 / 2025 Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche. Options are great, but they also lead to confusion and frustration trying to find individual Nuggets and Avs games every night. Plus there is not 1 service that is guaranteed to have all of the games, since the games will be broadcast on up to 10 different channels or services.

For most people we now recommend a whole home HD TV Antenna – free TV and no blackouts ever! Within a single sports season, a properly-installed outdoor or attic HD Antenna more than pays for itself. Regional sports streaming packages that include Altitude Sports and include local network channels are expensive and can cost between $100 – $150 per month. That monthly price sounds a lot like your old Cable and Satellite bill… Again the best option for Nuggets, Avs, and all Broncos games is a TV antenna, which is also the option that most people either overlook or don’t install correctly.

You can choose to pay for a big Live Streaming bundle of 100+ channels including Altitude Sports for all the games. Pay for a monthly subscription to Altitude+ streaming service to get some games. Or save money and get 50+ Nuggets and Avs games in HD, free for life, with a whole home TV Antenna!
