The NBA is also celebrating its 75th anniversary, and as a result, they’ll be featuring several ‘milestone matchups’ as a part of their ‘NBA 75’ campaign this year.
After two unconventional seasons due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the NBA will finally be getting back to a traditional 82 game season that’ll run from October 19th to April 10th.
