Bleacher Brothers is here to help you catch all the holiday excitement of the 2023 NBA Christmas Day games. Disney aka ESPN & ABC bought the rights to broadcast all five matchups, which kinda sucks because TNT’s Inside The NBA is about the only watchable content outside the games, themselves. Additionally, two of these games will also be available on basic cable (ABC). The schedule for the day is as follows:
2023 NBA Christmas Day Game Schedule
- Milwaukee Bucks vs. New York Knicks at 12:00 PM ET on ESPN
- Golden State Warriors vs. Denver Nuggets at 2:30 PM ET on ABC/ESPN
- Boston Celtics vs. Los Angeles Lakers at 5:00 PM ET on ABC/ESPN
- Philadelphia 76ers vs. Miami Heat at 8:00 PM ET on ESPN
- Dallas Mavericks vs. Phoenix Suns at 10:30 PM ET on ESPN
