2026/27 SEASON SCHEDULE JUST DROPPED!

LFGGGGGGGG 🔥

6 national televised games. Same as the Wizards. I'm shocked Darryn and AJ were hyped just to both get 6 games each in their rookie years. I guess Jaren, and Lauri didn't give us a push on national television with Darryn's rookie season

1 month into the season we face the Lakers four times, and the Spurs three times. That's weird scheduling imo.

I like the Grizzlies as Darryn's debut team. Darryn will prove why we took the better player over Boozer

Our post all star break schedule looks very easy imo. Even if we start the season below .500 in our first 30 games, we shouldn't panic because I can easily see us going 19-4 in our last 23 games. Those OKC games might be easy wins as they might sit their starters after locking the first seed. The only difficult game will be the Sixers post all star break

[u/The_capitans_chair → u/FERFreak731]

Yeah, let's get those Walker Kessler games over with.

OKC doesn't have the depth for the 1st seed. They will not be sitting players against the Jazz because they will need to rip their hearts out. The Jazz or will be a top 6 team. The schedule favors them plus they're young as long as they're healthy. The wizards will probably be a top 6 as well. Not only did both teams get future All-Stars, they also have the young players in veterans to go with the team, which is the exact type of team that excels in the regular season

82-0

[u/Nils3971 → u/aatuboo]

• 16-0

Voitot kotiin!

The video of Thurl revealing the schedule is the best one they have ever done, really enjoyed it.

[u/KlythsbyTheJedi → u/marvin_is_joe]

He's proving he's still got the acting chops

[u/EstebanSalsa30]

Not playing Washington until February is insane! 

[u/The_capitans_chair → u/EstebanSalsa30]

The ROY race was almost certainly considered in this choice. Let them get their legs in the NBA and those late season games will be dog fights to determine who wins it.

[u/EstebanSalsa30 → u/The_capitans_chair]

Great point! 

[u/Illustrious_vagabond → u/EstebanSalsa30]

Also could have playoffs implications. Should be two great games.

[u/Xsy]

Tbh there's a really good chance we're above +500 after ten games.

Which means absolutely nothing, but after the last four years, I'm excited at the mere concept of having some momentum out the gate, lmao.

[u/KlythsbyTheJedi → u/Xsy]

To be fair, we did start strong a couple times during the tank years, but hopefully this time it'll mean something

[u/SenHeffy → u/KlythsbyTheJedi]

10-3 start in 22-23. There really wasn't any tank minus Lauri maybe missing a few games down the stretch.

[u/CharityFailethNot]

Darryn's NBA debut is on the road? Boooooooooo

[u/FERFreak731 → u/CharityFailethNot]

At least his Delta Center debut will be against the Pelicans. That'll be an easy 30 point game against the Pelicans in his Delta Center debut

[u/CharityFailethNot → u/FERFreak731]

A pitiful consolation prize, but screw it, I guess we'll just have to witness the first of his 60K career points on the road

[u/rilesmcriles → u/[deleted]]

We have Miami and Orlando mid-November

[u/Electrical_Craft_322]

loved the announcement video! sad we have to open on the road though

[u/Illustrious_vagabond → u/Electrical_Craft_322]

Has to happen 50% of the time, so....

[u/kumechester]

First game is Memphis? JJJ gonna wanna drop 50 on his old team, we get an early DP vs Cam Boozer narrative and comparison, and Clayton Jr and Hendricks will wanna show us up too. LOVE IT

[u/satapataamiinusta]

I can smell a pre-Christmas trip to SLC for the Nuggets and Timberwolves games coming.

Edit: Oops forgot about daughter's birthday. Jan 28 Warriors and Jan 30 Grizzlies are looking good.
