The 2025–26 NBA season is set to begin on October 21, as reported by Shams Charania from ESPN, who revealed the two key games that will feature on the opening night.

The opening game will showcase the current NBA champions, the Oklahoma City Thunder, as they face off against the Houston Rockets. This matchup offers the Thunder an opportunity to showcase their recent title win on a national platform.

The second game of the night features the Golden State Warriors traveling to play against the Los Angeles Lakers. This game is particularly awaited for its face-off between NBA stars Stephen Curry and LeBron James.

NBC will broadcast these games, in addition to ABC/ESPN and Amazon, all of which have acquired broadcasting rights for the league following TNT’s inability to renew their contract with the NBA.

The opening night is also expected to be the first opportunity for NBA enthusiasts to see Michael Jordan in his new role as a special contributor for NBC. It will be particularly compelling to hear his insights on LeBron James, a player often mentioned alongside Jordan in discussions about the greatest of all time.
