The logo currently used for the NBA Finals (2026-present). (NBA)

| ⏵ Saturday, May 30, 2026 |

🟆 Highlights:

The 2026 NBA Finals will see the New York Knicks battle the San Antonio Spurs to find out which team will be crowned NBA champions for the season!

Just Like It’s 1999 All Over: Spurs & Knicks clash in the NBA Finals for the second time ever, with San Antonio defeating New York 4-1 in the 1999 NBA Finals for the first of five eventual Spurs championships.

ABC will exclusively televise the NBA Finals for the 24th consecutive season, with all games beginning at 8:30 PM ET.

Naismith Basketball Hall of Famer and longtime Knicks broadcaster Mike Breen, analyst and 2016 NBA Champion Richard Jefferson, fellow analyst and NBA veteran Tim Legler, & reporter Lisa Salters cap off their first season together with the television broadcast call of the 2026 NBA Finals.

For the first time ever, “Inside the NBA” will broadcast live from the NBA Finals! Ernie Johnson Jr., Hall of Famers Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley, and Kenny “The Jet” Smith provide pregame and postgame coverage from the site of the NBA Finals (San Antonio for Spurs games & New York City for Knicks games).

The 2026 NBA Finals will begin on Wednesday, June 3, at 8:30 PM ET on ABC, with Game 1 of this best-of-seven championship series. This year’s Finals pits Jalen Brunson and the Eastern Conference champion New York Knicks against reigning Defensive Player of the Year Victor Wembanyama and the Western Conference champion San Antonio Spurs.

This series marks the Knicks’ first NBA Finals appearance since 1999 — and first one on ABC since 1973 — and the Spurs’ sixth NBA Finals appearance on ABC (2003, 2005, 2007, 2013, 2014 & 2026). The series will be televised exclusively by ABC, and can be seen on the ESPN App for those who prefer the streaming option.

ESPN will be assigning its lead NBA team of Naismith Basketball Hall of Famer Mike Breen (play-by-play), 2016 NBA Champion Richard Jefferson (analyst), NBA veteran Tim Legler (analyst), and longtime reporter Lisa Salters (sidelines) to call the Spurs-Knicks series. If needed, NBA on ESPN rules analyst Steve Javie will contribute remotely throughout the NBA Finals.

Broadcast team by the Numbers:

Mike Breen: Record-extending 21st NBA Finals as play-by-play commentator (2026-present).

Richard Jefferson: 2nd NBA Finals as game analyst (2025-present).

Tim Legler: Makes his NBA Finals as a game analyst (2026-present).

Lisa Salters: Covers his 6th NBA Finals as sideline reporter (2006, 2022-present).

NBA Tip-Off and Inside the NBA:

For the first time, the legendary Inside the NBA studio team — comprising Ernie Johnson Jr., Shaquille O’Neal, Charles Barkley, and Kenny Smith — will serve as the official pregame, halftime, and postgame coverage for the NBA Finals. These programs will be produced on location by Turner Sports (TNT Sports) in San Antonio and New York City. Four-time NBA champion Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors will join as a guest analyst for Games 3 and 4 from New York.

NBA Tip-Off presented by American Express will lead into game coverage with a 90-minute pregame program, airing from 7:00 PM ET to 8:00 PM ET on ESPN and 8:00 PM ET to 8:30 PM ET on ABC during every single NBA Finals game night. Inside the NBA, presented by Eli Lilly, will typically start on ESPN following the conclusion of NBA Finals games. However, if there is a Game 5 on Saturday, June 13, Inside the NBA will air on ABC before moving to ESPN.

ESPN’s NBA Finals Production Open:

ESPN’s NBA Finals presentation will feature a custom broadcast open celebrating the players, teams, and milestones that have defined the league’s biggest stage. The open includes seven themed elements highlighting iconic moments throughout NBA Finals history, setting the tone for each game with a cinematic look at the legacy of the Finals.

Production Highlights:

The 2026 NBA Finals will be ABC’s first NBA Finals presented with 1080P HDR capture and transmission.

Additional highlights include:

52 total cameras;

14 high frame rate super slow-motion cameras;

Four native 4K high frame rate cameras, including SkyCam;

New 4K replay zoom capabilities for enhanced review angles.

EVS XtraMotion generative AI replay system (Super Motion, Motion Blur, Cinematic effects);

RF Megalodon camera system featuring Canon C80;

Full IP 2110 transmission workflow supported by Game Creek Video.

ESPN Radio:

Marc Kestecher will handle play-by-play, joined by former NBA Head Coach PJ Carlesimo and Naismith Hall of Famer Doris Burke. Jorge Sedano will report from the sidelines. Coverage of each game begins at 7:30 PM ET, with co-anchors Cory Alexander, broadcasting from the Finals site, and Jim Basquil, from ESPN’s Bristol, Connecticut headquarters.

NBA Today:

NBA Today — ESPN’s daily NBA studio show — is set to travel for on-site programs throughout the duration of the NBA Finals. Malika Andrews serves as the host alongside a group of experienced and respected NBA voices, including Iman Shumpert, Danny Green, Kendrick Perkins, Chiney Ogwumike, Brian Windhorst, and Shams Charania, with additional reporting and insights from Ramona Shelburne, Vincent Goodwill, Tim Bontemps, and Tim MacMahon.

During weekday game nights, NBA Today will expand to a two-hour program on ESPN (3-5 PM ET), featuring interviews with both NBA Finals participants (Spurs and Knicks). In New York, NBA Today will originate from The Rutherford, located near Madison Square Garden, with a live studio audience participating. Coverage from San Antonio will originate from The Alamo.

SportsCenter:

SportsCenter will be on-site during the NBA Finals, providing comprehensive coverage across multiple editions of the show. Kevin Negandhi will host 6:00 PM ET editions ahead of select games down in San Antonio. At the same time, Christine Williamson anchors the 6:00 PM ET edition from New York’s Madison Square Garden before games in New York.

ESPN’s late-night show, SportsCenter with Scott Van Pelt, television’s top place to watch quality and expert postgame coverage during major championship events, will have a presence during the NBA Finals and the Stanley Cup Final. These shows will feature a mix of game highlights, interviews with key personnel (players and coaches, of course), and analysis from ESPN’s analyst roster across both sports.

SportsCenter with Scott Van Pelt will immediately follow Inside the NBA postgame shows on ESPN. During the Finals games played in New York, Scott will bring his late-night SportsCenter show on-site at Madison Square Garden.

Hoop Streams:

Hoop Streams, ESPN’s NBA digital pregame show, will be airing on-site before Games 1 through 4 of the NBA Finals. Vanessa Richardson and Iman Shumpert will host, alongside special guests who carry their own unique opinions and perspectives. These shows kick off 30 minutes before the NBA Finals games (8:00 PM ET). Samantha Rivera will regularly contribute throughout the series. The program continues to be distributed across the ESPN App and ESPN’s social platforms.

Hoop Collective:

Hoop Collective — one of ESPN’s most well-liked podcasts — again goes to the NBA Finals with broadened on-site coverage throughout the championship series. This series features ESPN Senior NBA Writer Brian Windhorst joined by several of ESPN’s top NBA analysts and reporters, including Tim MacMahon, Tim Bontemps, and Iman Shumpert, and numerous special guests that will appear throughout the series. The show debuts with a special NBA Finals Preview show on Tuesday, June 2, originating live from the first-ever NBA “Podcast Row” at Finals Media Day in San Antonio.

Additional content will drop after each Finals contest and on off days between matchups, meaning the show will deliver new content daily during the Finals period.

2026 Stanley Cup Final presented by GEICO — Television Schedule & Broadcasters

The logo used for the 2026 Stanley Cup Final: Vegas Golden Knights vs. Carolina Hurricanes. (NHL Public Relations)

| ⏵ Friday, May 29, 2026

🟄 Highlights:

Golden Knights, Hurricanes set to battle in the 2026 Stanley Cup Final. It’s the first-ever playoff series meeting between these two clubs with the championship on the line.

Vegas is in the Stanley Cup Final for the third time in its nine-year history (2018, 2023, 2026).

Carolina makes their return to the NHL’s championship series for the first time since the 2005-06 season.

ABC will exclusively televise the series in the United States, with Sean McDonough, Ray Ferraro & Emily Kaplan covering the action for every Stanley Cup Final game.

Game 1 is Tuesday, June 2, at 8:00 PM ET on ABC, as the Golden Knights visit the Hurricanes to start the best-of-seven championship series.

Here we are, folks! With Carolina’s 6-1 win over the Canadiens in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Final on Friday night, we now have the 2026 Stanley Cup Final matchup. The Vegas Golden Knights will battle the Carolina Hurricanes to determine who will be the NHL’s 2025-26 champion.

The 2026 Stanley Cup Final presented by GEICO begins on Tuesday, June 2, from the Lenovo Center in Raleigh, North Carolina, at 8:00 PM ET on ABC. ABC will present the series on the over-the-air television (OTA), featuring commentators Sean McDonough, Ray Ferraro & Emily Kaplan. McDonough, Ferraro & Kaplan are working their third Stanley Cup Final together, after previously working the Lightning-Avalanche series in 2022 & the Oilers-Panthers series in 2024.

The Golden Knights punched their ticket to the Stanley Cup Final with a Western Conference Final series sweep over the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Colorado Avalanche. The Golden Knights are the top seed from the Pacific Division this year (39-26-17, 95 points). The Golden Knights needed six games to beat the Utah Mammoth in the first round and the Anaheim Ducks in the second round.

Previously, Vegas has split its two prior trips to the Stanley Cup Final. They lost to the Washington Capitals in five games in 2018, then won a five-game series over the Florida Panthers in 2023 to win the franchise’s first-ever Stanley Cup championship.

Carolina made it to the Stanley Cup Final after defeating the Montreal Canadiens in the Eastern Conference Final, four games to one. Carolina was the No. 1 seed from the Metropolitan Division, securing the East’s best record (53-22-7, 113 points). The Hurricanes swept the Ottawa Senators in the first round and dispatched the Philadelphia Flyers in the second round via a four-game series sweep.

This is Carolina’s third Stanley Cup Final appearance, and its first one since winning the Stanley Cup title way back in 2006.

2026 College Football on USA Network Schedule

Logo used for the second incarnation of USA Sports (2025-present). (USA Network)

| ⏵ Thursday, May 28, 2026

🟅 Highlights:

USA Sports launches its Pac-12 football package in 2026.

The 22-game lineup includes home games from every Pac-12 school, at least six from Oregon State, and five from Washington State & Boise State.

Consistent game times — USA to present Pac-12 football doubleheaders on most Saturdays, with games at 6:00 PM ET and 9:30 PM ET.

FLEX! USA Sports can flex in TWO games on Saturday, November 28, with the games to be determined after Week 12’s play.

“Battle for the Bronze Boot” gets USA Sports’ college football coverage underway, with Wyoming playing Colorado State on Saturday, September 5, at 6:00 PM ET.

USA Sports announced its on-air schedule for its 2026 Pac-12 football coverage, marking the first season USA Network will air Pac-12 college football.

USA Sports’ 2026 Pac-12 football schedule. (Versant Press Room)

USA Network’s 22-game schedule has multiple games from each school in the newly formed Pac-12, with at least one home game for each club. Oregon State will have six games on the station (the most of any Pac-12 team) this year. In contrast, Boise State, which won its third consecutive conference championship in 2025 and reached the College Football Playoff the year prior, and Washington State get five games on USA Network. USA Network will broadcast every game between these three programs, including Washington State-Oregon State in Week 7 (October 17), Boise State-Washington State in Week 8 (October 24), & Oregon State-Boise State in Week 11 (November 14).

A noticeable feature of USA Network’s 2026 Pac-12 football coverage is a regular kickoff time for doubleheader games — 6:00 PM ET and 9:30 PM ET. 17 of their 22 games will be slotted in these two time windows. In the final week of the regular season, USA Sports will have two FLEX matchups from the Pac-12’s home-and-home format on Saturday, November 28, allowing USA to televise games that will hopefully have some meaning to them when the time comes. Additionally, the USA Network will have first pick during this week. These Week 13 USA games will be determined after the Week 12 slate.

“We can’t wait to kick off USA Sports’ inaugural season of Pac-12 coverage this fall on USA Network,” said Mariel Brady, VP, Programming, USA Sports. “Our 2026 Pac-12 schedule features an incredibly strong intraconference slate and top-tier matchups throughout the season’s stretch run, punctuated by the first pick of Week 13’s flex scheduling.”

The season begins on USA Network with a non-conference double dip on Saturday, September 5, as Colorado State, in Jim Mora’s debut as head coach of the Rams, hosts their rival Wyoming in the Border War duel for the Bronze Boot at 6:00 PM ET, followed by Portland State-San Diego State at 9:30 PM ET.

The early-season non-conference game lineup on USA Network includes Boise State hosting Memphis in a Week 2 clash on Saturday, September 12, at 6:00 PM ET and Texas State going up against North Texas, who finished the 2025 season with a 12-2 record and were ranked No. 24 in the final AP Top 25 poll, in Week 3 (Saturday, September 19) at 12:00 PM ET.

On Saturday, September 19, during Week 3, USA Network will deliver an extensive lineup of sports programming, featuring three Pac-12 games, early-morning Premier League coverage, and live NASCAR Cup Series coverage from Bristol Motor Speedway. After the Premier League broadcast, the game between North Texas and Texas State will commence at 12:00 PM ET. This will be succeeded by the matchup between Duquesne and Washington State at 3:30 PM ET, while the day will conclude with the game featuring Montana at Oregon State at 11:00 PM ET, following the NASCAR night race in Bristol.

The Pac-12 conference schedule kicks off in Week 5, with USA Network presenting a Saturday primetime doubleheader on October 3, featuring Oregon State vs. Colorado State at 6:00 PM ET and Fresno State vs. Washington State at 9:30 PM ET.

In Week 7, two legacy Pac-12 members face off on USA Network as Washington State visits Oregon State on Saturday, October 17 at 6:00 PM ET.

USA Network will have the rights to four in-conference Boise State games, including at Washington State (Saturday, October 24 at 6:00 PM ET), and three consecutive late-season matchups at Colorado State (Saturday, November 7), and home games vs. Oregon State (Saturday, November 14) and San Diego State (Saturday, November 21).

More information about USA Sports’ studio and game commentators for Pac-12 football will be announced later in the summer.

| ⏵ Thursday, May 28, 2026

🟆 Highlights:

Big Ten (B1G) programs like Oregon, Minnesota, & USC will be featured early on in CBS’s 2026 regular season slate.

Four regular-season Pac-12 games as that league restarts following a multi-year hiatus, including Texas Tech-Oregon State, BYU-Colorado State, & Arizona-Washington State. CBS will serve as the host of the 2026 Pac-12 Championship Game on Friday, December 4 at 8:00 PM ET.

Five doubleheader windows for CBS during the regular season, including three in September (September 12, September 19 & September 26).

The 127th annual Army-Navy Game & the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl are also major highlights to CBS’s 2026 college football schedule.

As the countdown to the college football season approaches the 100-day mark, excitement builds with the announcement of the schedule and kickoff times for several high-profile early-season games.

On Wednesday, CBS Sports unveiled its college football schedule for the 2026 season, featuring 14 matchups involving the Big Ten, all slated for the customary 3:30 PM ET kickoff. The season will commence with Oregon facing Boise State in a highly anticipated Week 1 clash between contenders for the College Football Playoff in Eugene.

Additional Big Ten games scheduled on CBS include Minnesota’s matchup against Mississippi State in Week 2 and USC’s significant journey to New Jersey to begin its conference slate against Rutgers in Week 3. CBS will also air the traditional Black Friday rivalry game between Nebraska and Iowa, set for Iowa City on November 27 at 12:00 PM ET, followed by the final Big Ten game on CBS during the regular season on November 28 at 3:30 PM ET.

Among the numerous narratives shaping this college football season, the Pac-12’s resurgence stands out. CBS Sports will provide extensive coverage of the revamped league, including prominent nonconference matchups and the Pac-12 Championship Game, which will take place at the season’s conclusion on CBS. Boise State will showcase its status as a contender early with its visit to Oregon. At the same time, Oregon State, Colorado State, and Washington State aim to disrupt the plans of power-conference teams on their challenging early-season road trips.

In addition to the Big Ten and Pac-12 matchups, CBS Sports will also highlight three games in the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy rivalry, featuring Army, Navy, and Air Force. The series will culminate with the Army-Navy game, maintaining its traditional slot on the calendar at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
