NBA Announces Full Schedule For 2023-24 Season

After a lot of anticipation, the NBA finally unveiled the schedule for the upcoming season. The regular season will kick off on October 24, and it’s bringing us several highly-anticipated moments, including Victor Wembanyama's debut and the recently announced in-season tournament. The NBA schedule was announced ahead of the 2023 FIBA Men’s World Cup, and the regular season opener will be preceded by several pre-season and international games, taking place in Canada and the United Arab Emirates. The league's annual season-opening doubleheader on October 24 will see the champions Denver Nuggets meet the fellow Western Conference finalists the Los Angeles Lakers. This game will be followed by the face-off between the Phoenix Suns and the Golden State Warriors. Victor Wembanyama, who was selected as the first pack in this year’s NBA Draft will make his highly-anticipated debut with the San Antonio Spurs the very next day, when they’re set to face the Dallas Mavericks. The inaugural NBA In-Season Tournament is also worth waiting for, and it’s scheduled to take place between November 3–December 9, with all 30 teams taking part. All-Star Game will return on February 18, with the Indiana Pacers serving as hosts. The regular season is set to conclude on April 14, while Game 1 of the finals will take place on June 6.
