The NBA just dropped its schedule bombshell, and hoops fans are hyped! Reigning champs Boston Celtics will tip off their title defense against the New York Knicks at TD Garden on October 22. Talk about starting with a bang!
Fresh off their 18th championship win (shoutout to Finals MVP Jaylen Brown ), the Celtics are bringing back their A-game. But watch out for the Knicks – they’ve been stacking their roster like a fantasy basketball dream team. Jalen Brunson took a pay cut to keep OG Anunoby and crew around, plus they snagged Mikal Bridges. Game. On.
Meanwhile, the Lakers and Timberwolves are reigniting Olympic rivalries in LA. Anthony Edwards (Team USA gold medalist ) faces off against Rudy Gobert (his former Olympic opponent from France) – now teammates turned foes. LeBron and AD vs. Ant-Man and Gobert? We’re already buzzing.
Last season’s playoff drama gives this opener extra spice: Lakers got eliminated early, Timberwolves clawed their way to the West Finals, while the Knicks fell just short of glory. Who’s hungry for redemption?
