Opening night will see Kevin Durant head back to Oklahoma City with his new team, and watch his former team raise their NBA championship banner. The other game will see Stephen Curry and LeBron James play against one another in another star-studded Western Conference class.

In the NBA on NBC return, Kevin Durant’s Rockets will visit Oklahoma City on ring night. Later, they play LeBron James and the Lakers on Christmas.

The NBA might be stuck in its summer doldrums right now, but it’s never too early to think about Christmas. The league’s 2025 Christmas day schedule leaked on Friday afternoon thanks to ESPN insider Shams Charania, and the five-game slate is shaping up to be another fantastic day of basketball.
