An exciting holiday viewing experience awaits Filipino fans as the NBA’s 75th anniversary season – commemorated as NBA 75 – presents a full slate of games during the Christmas weekend from December 24 to 26, 2021. Christmas has always been one of the most highly anticipated days on the regular-season schedule, with sports-loving families turning the Christmas Day games into an annual binge tradition to enjoy together.
On Dec. 26, Christmas games will tip off in the Philippines at 1:00 AM beginning with the Atlanta Hawks versus New York Knicks, with this year’s slate featuring former Most Valuable Player Award winners (Giannis Antetokoumpo, James Harden, Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Russell Westbrook and Stephen Curry) and a collection of young stars (Trae Young, Jayson Tatum, Devin Booker, Luka Dončić and Donovan Mitchell), too.
Keeping NBA fans at the edge of their seats is watching which teams will dominate the holiday festivities, with four of the five matchups never played before on Christmas Day: Boston Celtics vs. Milwaukee Bucks at 3:30 AM; Golden State Warriors vs. Phoenix Suns at 6:00 AM; Brooklyn Nets vs. Los Angeles Lakers at 9:00 AM; and Dallas Mavericks vs Utah Jazz at 11:30 AM. Some Christmas Day fun facts include the Lakers playing on the holiday for the 23rd consecutive year and the Hawks and the Suns making their Christmas Day appearance for the first time since 1989 and 2009, respectively.
