Trae Young returns for Atlanta. The four-time All-Star makes his return to the Hawks lineup after a 22-game absence. The Pacers and Knicks renew their rivalry. New York is fresh off winning an NBA Cup, and it’ll be fascinating to see how they look just two days after capturing that crown.

San Antonio's Victor Wembanyama hinted at the integrity of Oklahoma City's play following his team's victory over the Thunder this past Saturday.

Unlike last year, the Oklahoma City Thunder were in the comfort of their own homes as the 2025 NBA Cup finals played out. All eyes in the NBA world were on the New York Knicks as they beat the San Antonio Spurs to win the in-season tournament.
