Here you can find the most important information about the start of the season, schedule and other dates.
When is the preseason held? What are the most important dates? SPOX provides the overview.
The Regular Season will start on 30 October 2018 (local time), almost two weeks later than last season. Who will open the new season is not yet known, but the Golden State Warriors will definitely be in action as reigning champions on October 30th.
The schedule for the upcoming Regular Season has not yet been announced, currently only a few dates are known. The complete schedule will be published in August 2018, but the exact date is unknown.
One date that has already been fixed for some time is that of the All-Star Game: This will take place next season on February 17 (local time) in Charlotte, North Carolina. The game was supposed to take place there as early as 2017, but due to controversy over the Public Facilities Privacy and Security Act it was postponed to New Orleans at short notice. The game will be played in the Spectrum Center.
