The National Basketball Association (NBA) recently made public the broadcast schedules for the NBA 2K25 Summer League 2024, which features all 30 of the league's current franchises and will take place from Friday, July 12 through Monday, July 22 at the Thomas & Mack Center and the Pavilion on the campus of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). This means that we now have the full NBA TV schedule for the Las Vegas summer league, 2024 edition.

Of the 76 scheduled games, the ESPN family of networks (ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPN+ & ESPN3) will handle 37 games, with NBA TV airing the remaining games.

ESPN will have a doubleheader on the first night of the Las Vegas Summer League, Friday, July 12. In the first game at 7:30 PM ET, the Lakers' two 2024 draftees Bronny James (LeBron's son, of course) and Dalton Knecht lead the Los Angeles Lakers against No. 3 pick Reed Sheppard and the Houston Rockets. Then, at 9:30 PM ET, Zaccharie Risacher, the 2024 NBA Draft No. 1 overall pick, and the Atlanta Hawks battle Alex Sarr, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, and the Washington Wizards.

Each team will play at least five games during the Las Vegas Summer League competition, with four games guaranteed from July 12-19. After the first four games have been played by each team, the top four teams will qualify for the playoffs, beginning with a semifinal doubleheader on Sunday, July 21 at 2:00 PM ET and 4:00 PM ET on ESPN. Two winning teams from these semifinal games will meet in the Championship Game 🏆 at 9:00 PM ET on ESPN.

The four playoff teams will be determined by winning percentage in each team's first four Summer League games, with tiebreak criteria available here. The 26 teams that do not advance to the four-team Summer League playoff will play a fifth game ("consolation") on either Saturday, July 20 or Sunday, July 21.

The NBA Summer League in Las Vegas has a rich and robust history of producing future top-tier talent in the NBA. Former participants in this Summer League include 2024 NBA Finals MVP 🏆 Jaylen Brown (who played at NBA Summer League in 2016 & 2017), and Kia Most Valuable Player Award recipients Kevin Durant (2007), Stephen Curry (2009), James Harden (2009), Russell Westbrook (2009), Giannis Antetokoumnpo and Nikola Jokić (2015).
