The NBA 2025-26 program is released: 20 games not to be missed this season
The NBA program has decreased and has all the drama that we could not wait: rivalry, revenge games, stars that return to face the teams they have left and many high-level clashes many of them on NBC and NBC Peacock.
Here are 20 non -Miss games of the next season NBA.
• October 21: Houston Rockets in Oklahoma City Thunder. The opening evening of the season and the return of the NBA to the NBC for the first time in 24 years, in addition to the debut of the NBA on Pavone. And you may not find a first better game like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder take their championship rings by Adam Silver and raise the first banner won in the city to beams. All this in front of Kevin Durant, probably the greatest player ever to pull a thunder shirt above his head, but a boy who has never been able to win that ring in OKC. However, it doesn’t seem too stressed.
Finally. 10 years have passed, for the moment when they win a LMAooo

• October 24, Detroit Pistons in Houston Rockets. The twins Ausar Thompson (Detroit) and Amen Thompson (Houston) take care of a fun first season race.
• October 27: Denver Nuggets in Minnesota Timberwolves. The first night of Peacock NBA Monday – in which the games are raised exclusively on Peacock – presents a reckoning from two of the best teams and players in the West. Take a look at a much deeper team of Nuggets around Nikola Jokic while colliding against Anthony Edwards and a team from Timberwolves who was at the Western Conference finals.
• October 31: Boston Celtics in Philadelphia 76ers. It is the first game of the NBA Cup, the League seasonal tournament. Tune in to see how the cup field appears in Philly and if they are playing Joel Embiid and Paul George. If they are, Philly can resist anyone.
• November 1: Dallas Mavericks in Detroit Pistons. The NBA returns to Mexico City and is exporting what should be a fun race with Cade Cunningham, Cooper Flagg and Anthony Davis. This game will be Streaming on Pavone streaming.
• November 3: Milwaukee Bucks at the Indiana Pacer. Myles Turner returns to Indiana after remaining in the free agency to get the paycheck he wanted and chases a ring with Giannis Antetokounmpo. Don’t expect Pacers fans to understand and forgive.
• November 25: Los Angeles Clippers in Los Angeles Lakers. Lakers fans will be ready to tell you that there is no rivalry with the Clippers, no battle for Los Angeles – so they look at their reaction after you told them that the clippers have been the best team and the Better Run franchise in the last ten years. This is a rendering of the NBA Cup on NBC e Peacock.
• December 25: San Antonio Spurs in Oklahoma City Thunder. During the finals of the NBA last season, Oklahoma City players were more than happy to talk about how they felt snubbed not to get a game on Christmas day and how they used it as a motivation. The reigning champions get their Christmas day match this year, and is a reckoning between Victor Wembanyama and Chet Holmgren, the two seven feet feet that led the NBA in the future. It is also a rendering of the promising Backcourt of San Antonio with De’Aron Fox and N. 2 Pick Dylan Harper against Okc Mvp SGA.
• December 25: Dallas Mavericks at the Golden State Warriors. It is a passage of the torch game at Christmas: Stephen Curry and his generation are approaching at the end of their race, and faces the number 1 Pick Cooper Flagg (as well as the former number 1 Pick Anthony Davis). How much did Stephen Curry and Draymond Green left in the tank? Those Warriors players always seem to save their best for the brightest spotlight, as well as Jimmy Butler.
• January 2: Atlanta Hawks in New York Knicks. Take Young loves to play the villain and save his best games for Madison Square Garden, where it was once the public enemy n. 1, and would like to regain that crown.
• January 16: Minnesota Timberwolves in Houston Rockets. More than two of the best teams in the West facing, this will be the first time in the season in which Anthony Edwards will have the opportunity to go head to head and break down his idol, Kevin Durant.
• January 19: Oklahoma City Thunder in Cleveland Cavaliers. The highlight of the quadruple interstation on NBC e Peacock On Martin Luther King Jr., this could be a preview of the finals (The Thunder and Cavaliers were the seeds in every conference last season and it is expected that they will repeat this company this season). Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in front of Donovan Mitchell will always be fun.
• January 20, the San Antonio Spurs to the Houston Rockets. This will be one of the great rivalries of the NBA for a few seasons and we see Kevin Durant, Amen Thompson and the deep roster of the Rockets try to attack a defense led by Victor Wembanyama (the favorite of the Preseason to win the defensive player of the year). In addition, it is an opportunity to check -in on N. 2 Pick Dylan Harper and how he is progressing in San Antonio.
• January 28, Atlanta Hawks in Boston Celtics. KRISTAPS PORZINGIS, who helped the Celtics to win a ring in 2024, but was often injured in his time with the team, returns to Boston with a team in Atlanta Hawks who is deep and a threat to the East – if KP can remain healthy and provide the protection of the rim and the spacing of the floor they need next to Trae Young.
• January 28: Los Angeles Lakers in Cleveland Cavaliers. The voices on trade have turbinated all summer with questions about Lebron’s future in Los Angeles and how Cleveland could put over the first time for a title. Although that trade could not meet (and it will not be at this year’s commercial deadline for salary limit reasons), the voices will continue to fly while Lebron will return to his old rescue land. This game concerns both the drama out of the field as the game itself.
• February 22: Boston Celtics in Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers will reveal a statue of Pat Riley outside Crypto.com Arena before a showdown on the Sunday Night Basketball Showcase of the NBC. Lebron James, Luka Doncic and Jaylen Brown will try to add to the greatest historical rivalry of the NBA.

A game that is part of the Peacock NBA Monday The season (with streaming games every Monday exclusively on Peacock), we get the last two MVP-LO SHAI Gilgeous-Alexander of the Thunder and the Nikola Jokic of the Nuggia Frits. This could also be a preview of the finals of the Western Conference.
• April 5: Los Angeles Lakers in Dallas Mavericks. Every time Luka Doncic returns to Dallas, it is worth watching – in this case the basketball on Sunday evening on NBC and Peacock – but this game also arrives in a low season of voices on Lebron who potentially want to play Dallas with former teammates Kyrie Irving and Anthony Davis. This game is also an opportunity to check -in on Cooper Flagg and see how the Standard Duke progressed in his beginner season.
• April 5: Houston Rockets at the Golden State Warriors. Can Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler start a couple of weeks before the start of the playoffs for their release of the playoffs a season ago? This game is part of a Doubleheader on Sunday evening of NBC and Peacock Sunday evening.
