The NBA season is back in full swing.

The 2026-27 campaign kicked off on Oct. 20 and has featured a number of entertaining contests.

Top pick AJ Dybantsa made his NBA debut on Wednesday, Oct. 28, living up to expectations in his first regular season game with the Wizards.

Action continues on Thursday, Oct. 29, with three contests, including Memphis facing Portland and Sacramento taking on New Orleans in a pair of matchups that should feature top 10 picks from the 2026 NBA Draft class.
