- NBA TV will broadcast 38 games during the 2025 NBA Summer League (NBA 2K26 Summer League) starting Thursday, July 10.
On Friday, the National Basketball Association (NBA) revealed the complete game and broadcast schedule for the 2025 NBA Summer League, which will be branded as NBA 2K26 Summer League for sponsorship reasons. This year's Las Vegas-based Summer League features all 30 NBA teams. This event will run from Thursday, July 10, through Sunday, July 20, at the Thomas & Mack Center and the Pavilion on the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) campus.
NBA TV will broadcast 38 of the 76 game broadcasts during the 2025 Summer League from Las Vegas, with the ESPN family of networks airing the remaining 38 broadcasts.
Each team is guaranteed five games at the 2025 NBA Summer League (NBA 2K26 Summer League), with the first four games scheduled from Thursday, July 10, through Thursday, July 17. After these four games, the top four teams will advance to the playoffs, beginning with a semifinal doubleheader on Saturday, July 19 at 4:00 PM ET and 6:00 PM ET on ESPN. The winners of the two semifinal games will play in the championship game on Sunday, July 20, at 10:00 PM ET on ESPN.
The four postseason teams and their seeding for these matchups will be based on winning percentage in each squad's first four NBA Summer League games. More information about the Summer League tiebreaker criteria is located here. The 26 teams that failed to advance to the playoffs will play a fifth game on Friday, July 18, Saturday, July 19, or Sunday, July 20.
NBA TV will launch their Vegas Summer League coverage with a tripleheader on Thursday, July 10 - Cavaliers vs. Pacers (5:00 PM ET), Magic vs. Kings (7:30 PM ET) & Nuggets vs. Bucks (9:30 PM ET).
On Friday, July 11, NBA TV could be the home for additional Summer League debuts for picks made during the lottery (Picks No. 1 through No. 14). No. 11 pick Cedric Coward leads his Memphis Grizzlies against the Boston Celtics at 4:00 PM ET. In primetime, No. 9 pick Collin Murray-Boyles and the Toronto Raptors meet No. 12 pick Noa Essengue and the Chicago Bulls (8:00 PM ET).
For the 12th straight summer, a champion will be crowned at NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. In last summer's title game, the Miami Heat defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 120-118 in overtime.
The NBA Summer League has a strong tradition of featuring future NBA stars.
