NBA fans won't have to wait much longer for the 2026-27 schedule. ESPN revealed the schedule rollout plan from the league, and the opening week and Christmas Day schedule will be announced Tuesday on Good Morning America. From there, the NBA Cup schedule will be revealed Wednesday before the entire schedule is unveiled Thursday at 3 p.m. 1 pick to join Anthony Davis and Trae Young, and Tyrese Haliburton is set to return to the Indiana Pacers. If Kawhi Leonard ends up on the Toronto Raptors pending the results of the league's investigation, there will be plenty of massive Eastern Conference games all over the schedule.
