NBA Christmas Games for the 2024-25 Season, Revealed
By Jordan Samar August 09, 2024 05:01
Shams Charania of The Athletic recently revealed the full Christmas slate for the 2024-25 NBA season, which will feature 10 teams for five games.
The San Antonio Spurs, Minnesota Timberwolves, Philadelphia 76ers, Los Angeles Lakers, and the Denver Nuggets will visit the New York Knicks, Dallas Mavericks, Boston Celtics, Golden State Warriors, and Phoenix Suns, respectively.
Without further ado, here's a quick preview of the games.
San Antonio Spurs @ New York Knicks
Victor Wembanyama will make his Christmas Day debut at Madison Square Garden, also known as the Mecca of basketball.
He will be up against the New York Knicks, flanked by their Villanova contingent in Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, Donte DiVincenzo, and Josh Hart.
Minnesota Timberwolves @ Dallas Mavericks
The second game is the rematch of last season's Western Conference Finals, where the Dallas Mavericks won the series in five games.
Anthony Edwards, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Rudy Gobert will go up against the dynamic backcourt duo of Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic in what will be another fun contest.
Philadelphia 76ers @ Boston Celtics
The match between the Philadelphia 76ers and the Boston Celtics might be a preview of the 2024-25 Eastern Conference Finals, given how stacked these teams are.
The Boston Celtics are fresh from winning their 18th NBA title, while the Philadelphia 76ers have formed a new Big 3 in Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid, and Paul George.
Los Angeles Lakers @ Golden State Warriors
LeBron James and Stephen Curry may be best friends right now for Team USA in the Paris Olympics, but they will renew their long rivalry on Christmas Day.
Other than James and Curry, Anthony Davis and Draymond Green will feature heavily in this fun West matchup.
Denver Nuggets @ Phoenix Suns
Elsewhere in Arizona, the Big 3 of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal will host Nikola Jokic and the rest of the Denver Nuggets.
These two teams might be matched up against one another by the time the playoffs roll, making this an intriguing affair.
