The 2021/22 NBA season is a couple of months away, but we’re already learning more details about the upcoming campaign. While some teams get ready to face a new challenge in the association, the league’s front office keeps working to bring a big show to fans.
Today is expected to be a big day for the league, as some key dates will be revealed. Sam Amick of The Athletic has broken the news of the first two matches we’ll see next October when the league returns to action.
According to Amick, we’ve seen four juggernauts going at it on Oct. 19 to kickstart an exciting season.
Per league source, the 75th regular season will tip off on TNT like this on Oct. 19…
* Brooklyn at Milwaukee
* Warriors at Lakers

These duels would be great to watch. Brooklyn and Milwaukee clashed in one of the best series of the 2021 NBA playoff. Giannis Antetokounmpo led his Bucks to the win against Kevin Durant in seven electrifying games.
On the other side, we have two teams that assembled very good groups to compete for the championship. Watching LeBron James going against Stephen Curry is always great, and the league is well aware of that.
This would be a terrific way to start a season that promises a lot of emotions from Day 1. Christmas Day games will be revealed later, with more teams competing on the most important day of the regular season.
