How to watch the Team USA Olympic showcase games without cable
If your cable subscription doesn't carry the Fox family of channels, or if you've cut the cord with your cable company, you can still watch Team USA's road to the Paris Summer Games. Below are the platforms on which you can watch the Team USA Olympic showcase games without cable.
Save $25 on Sling TV: The most cost-effective way to stream the Team USA Olympic showcase games
One of the most cost-effective ways to stream the road to the Olympics is through a subscription to Sling TV. To watch the Team USA Olympic showcase games and all the top-tier sports and content airing this summer, you'll need a subscription to the Orange + Blue tier.
Sling's Orange + Blue tier costs $60 per month, but the platform is currently offering $25 off the first month of any pricing tier, making the Orange + Blue tier $35 for the first month. You can cancel anytime.
Note: Because Sling TV doesn't carry CBS, you won't be able to watch CBS-aired programming like next year's NFL games on CBS. To watch these games, plus PGA golf, UEFA Champions League and more live sports, we recommend you also subscribe to Paramount+ with Showtime. Paramount+ with Showtime costs $12 per month after a one-week free trial.
CBS Essentials and Paramount+ with Showtime are both subsidiaries of Paramount.

- Sling TV is also our top choice to stream network-aired Paris Olympic events.
- There are 46 channels to watch in total, including ABC, NBC and Fox (where available).
- You get access to NHL games airing on TNT and TBS, which Fubo doesn't carry.

Watch the Team USA Olympic showcase games with a digital HDTV antenna
You can also watch Team USA games airing on network TV with an affordable indoor antenna, which pulls in local over-the-air HDTV channels such as CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox, PBS, Univision and more. Here's the kicker: There's no monthly charge.
For anyone living in a partially blocked-off area (those near mountains or first-floor apartments), a digital TV antenna may not pick up a good signal -- or any signal at all. But for many homes, a digital TV antenna provides a seriously inexpensive way to watch sports without paying a cable company. Indoor TV antennas can also provide some much-needed TV backup if a storm knocks out your cable.
This ultra-thin, multi-directional Mohu Leaf Supreme Pro digital antenna with a 65-mile range can receive hundreds of HDTV channels and can filter out cellular and FM signals. It delivers a high-quality picture in 1080p HDTV, top-tier sound and features a 12-foot digital coax cable.
This antenna is currently $56, reduced from $70 with coupon.
