2024-25 College Basketball Season (lower divisions)
This is the annual listing of telecasts and postseason streams for Division II, Division III, NAIA, and NJCAA.
Because of a new contract, the Division III semifinals and finals, and Division II quarterfinals and semifinals, moved from CBS Sports to ESPN. On the other hand, the NAIA left ESPN and streamed its tournament via its own website and Urban Edge Network.
