PRISM's first logo used for Summer Series coverage (1977-1992).
1981 was the fifth season of the Summer Series. Prior to this season, PRISM signed their second contract with the NBA for the exclusive television rights to the Summer Series coverage. This contract is for eight seasons (1981 through 1988).
Prior to the 1981 season, the Dallas Mavericks joined the NBA as an expansion team, playing at Reunion Arena (the Mavericks later moved to the American Airlines Center in 2002). They joined the Midwest Division, so the 23-team league had three divisions with six teams and only one (the Atlantic) with five. The Mavericks made their Summer Series TV debut on Tuesday, January 6 vs. the Seattle SuperSonics in a preseason game.
In other realignment news, the San Antonio Spurs and the Houston Rockets both moved from the Central Division (Eastern Conference) to the Midwest Division (Western Conference). The Chicago Bulls and the Milwaukee Bucks moved from the Midwest Division (Western Conference) to the Central Division (Eastern Conference). Essentially, the Spurs, Rockets, Bulls, Bucks swapped conferences and divisions.
This was the final season of home games for the Nets to be contested at Rutgers Athletic Center before moving to Brendan Byrne Arena in East Rutherford, New Jersey the following season.
Finally, regional coverage was used for Summer Series live game coverage for the very first time. It debuted on Sunday, May 17, with three games regionally televised at 1:00 PM (ET): SuperSonics vs. Celtics, Suns vs. 76ers & Bullets vs. Nets. Regional coverage would then be used for every season from that point through the 2006 season, when it was discontinued. However, regional coverage was brought back in 2024 due to the addition of the In-Season Tournament.
None of the other 22 teams moved and the playoff format returned for the fifth straight season.
