It’s the last day of the NBA regular season. Every team is in action, but one of the big games to watch features Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns taking on Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves. The game will tip off at 3:30 p.m. ET/2:30 p.m. CT on Sunday, April 14. The game will be played at the Target Center in Minneapolis.

The Suns and Timberwolves will both be playing in the postseason. For Phoenix, it’s been a season of ups and downs. Depending on what happens with the Pelicans, the Suns may have to win in the Play-In Tournament to advance to the playoffs. Meanwhile, Minnesota is one of the three best teams in the Western Conference. The Timberwolves are looking to win their first playoff series since 2004.

The game between the Suns and Timberwolves is not nationally televised, meaning that local markets will carry the broadcast. This is problematic for fans in other markets. If you live outside the Phoenix or Minneapolis areas, subscribe to NBA League Pass to watch the Suns versus the Timberwolves. If you are a Sling TV subscriber, you can purchase NBA League Pass and add it to your plan. Find out how to watch NBA games from anywhere with Sling.

If you plan to stream this NBA game while abroad, several challenges may arise, including broadcast restrictions and unsafe connections. This is why a virtual private network (VPN) is a must-have when abroad. A VPN will protect your connection from phishing scams and malware attacks. Connecting to a digital server in another country allows VPNs to bypass regional broadcast restrictions.

Our pick for the best virtual private network is NordVPN. By using NordVPN, subscribers will gain safe and private access to the internet. Think of NordVPN as an added layer of protection while using the internet. Unfortunately, there is no free trial. However, NordVPN does offer a 30-day money-back guarantee.

How to watch Jets vs. 49ers on Monday Night Football

Only one game remains on the NFL's Week 1 schedule, and it's one of the best. Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets head to Levi's Stadium to take on Christian McCaffrey and the San Francisco 49ers. It's the first Monday Night Football game of the season. Joe Buck and Troy Aikman will call the game from the booth, with Lisa Salters and Laura Rutledge reporting from the sidelines.

Rodgers' 2023 campaign ended in four plays after an Achilles' injury. The four-time MVP is healthy and back under center for the Jets, who will look to end their 13-season playoff drought. San Francisco is coming off a heartbreaking overtime loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. The 49ers have the weapons on both sides of the ball to make their third Super Bowl in six seasons.
