The only thing you need to access is NBC Sports, which is a valid cable TV provider. Get along with the steps given below to install and watch NBC Sports on Roku.
Can I Watch NBC Sports Outside the US?
No, you cannot watch NBC Sports outside the US. This is because the app is geo-restricted and available only to the US territories. However, there are some possibilities for unblocking geo-restrictions. You can configure a safe and secure VPN on your router to make it happen. I suggest you use a NordVPN among the various available VPNs.
