When are the 2025-2026 NBA Schedules Released?
Release Date
Following suit with most of the other major sports, the NBA does an excellent job of keeping the actual release date under its hat. But, based on past schedule release dates we can make somewhat of an educated guess that the schedules will be released sometime in the middle of August.
