NBA 2023-24 Season Schedule: Lakers vs Nuggets, Suns vs Warriors, Wembanyama’s Debut, Celtics vs Knicks, Christmas Day Games, and More

Cincinnati (USA), Aug 17 (EFE).- The Los Angeles Lakers will visit the champions, the Denver Nuggets, and the Phoenix Suns will face the Golden State Warriors on October 24 to kick off the 2023-24 NBA season.

The long-awaited debut of the French prodigy Victor Wembanyama, first choice of the San Antonio Spurs in the draft, will be on October 25 in the Texan derby against the Dallas Mavericks, according to the new schedule revealed this Thursday by the NBA.

Considered a generational talent, Wembanyama’s duel against Slovenian Luka Doncic will be broadcast nationally in the United States.

The second day of competition will also be marked by a duel of great tradition in the East between the Boston Celtics and the New York Knicks.

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers will visit the Suns of Devin Booker and Kevin Durant on Thursday 26, while the Milwaukee Bucks of Greek Giannis Antetokounmpo will play that same day against the Philadelphia 76ers of Joel Embiid.

The last finalists, the Miami Heat, will debut against the Pistons and will visit the Celtics on October 27.

Christmas Day will have five high-voltage games: Knicks-Bucks, Heat-76ers, Lakers-Celtics, Suns-Mavericks and Nuggets-Warriors.

The NBA regular season will begin on October 24 and conclude on April 14. The ‘playoffs’ will begin on the 20th, with ‘play-in’ from April 16 to 19, while the Finals will begin on June 6.

The NBA will also launch this year a new tournament within the season, which will be held from November 3 to December 9.

The games, except the final, will also count as regular season games, so the franchises will continue to play a total of 82 games. Only the two finalists would play one more duel, the one for the title in Las Vegas. EFE
