NBA Schedule Released: See Every Team's 2025-26 Schedule As Warriors, Lakers, Knicks Open With Marquee Games

The 2025-26 NBA schedule is here. The league released the full regular-season slate for the upcoming season on Thursday afternoon, and now teams and fans can really start to prepare for what should be another thrilling season. Opening night is set for Tuesday, Oct. 21, with the reigning champion Thunder taking on the Rockets in Kevin Durant's Houston debut. The Lakers will also duel against the Warriors to cap off opening night. 

The other 26 teams will get started later that week, with some intriguing early matchups on the schedule, including Knicks vs. Cavaliers, Timberwolves vs. Nuggets and a 2025 NBA Finals rematch of Pacers vs. Thunder. The 2025 NBA Cup starts Oct. 31, and the championship game is on Dec. 16 in Las Vegas. More key dates in the 2025-26 NBA season include the trade deadline on Feb. 5, 2026 NBA All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles from Feb. 13-15 and the final day of the regular season on April 12.

Every team will have at least two nationally televised games this season, with 247 games being aired nationally across all of the league's new television partners. That number is up from 172 games a season ago. No team will have more than 16 back-to-backs in 2025-26, which is the same amount as a season ago, and no team will play the night before major nationally televised games.

The 2025-26 NBA schedule continues its slow rollout ahead of the full official release at 3:15 p.M. ET on Thursday. Fans got some more important dates to circle Wednesday when it comes to the basketball calendar. The two opening night games are already known, as the Thunder start their title defense against the Rockets, and the Lakers tip their season off Oct. 21 against the Warriors.

Every team's schedule hits on Thursday, but on Wednesday, Amazon unveiled Prime Video streaming games, headlined by the NBA Cup. NBC and Disney announced multiple marquee games on Tuesday, too. NBC returns as a broadcast partner for the first time since 2002, and gets the first games of the season with an opening night doubleheader where the Thunder will raise their first championship banner and receive their 2025 title rings. NBC will also be home to the All-Star Game, NBA All-Star Saturday night and will air one of the conference finals in six of the 11 years of the new television deal. Amazon joins as a new partner and will have exclusive rights over the NBA Cup games as well as Play-In Tournament games. Amazon will also carry one conference finals in six of the 11 years of the league's deal, similar to NBC.

We'll know all of the details about that on Thursday. Until then, here's everything we know so far about the 2025-26 NBA schedule release. All games streaming on ABC, ESPN and NBC are available on Fubo (Start watching and save $20 now!).
