The NBA will feature an 11-game schedule on Black Friday 2025. These games include plenty of exciting matchups and newer generation rivalries. 

Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks have been dominant against the New York Knicks in the past. Antetokounmpo holds a 29-13 record for his career and averages 24.3 points when facing the Knicks. 

Cade Cunningham and the hot Detroit Pistons will host Paolo Banchero and the Orlando Magic. Whenever these two former number-one overall picks face off, there are fireworks on the court. 

Nothing more needs to be said to add any extra drama or weight to Luka Dončić and the Los Angeles Lakers taking on the Dallas Mavericks. For the remainder of his career, we’ll always wonder why he was traded each time they face one another. 

These are just some of the most intriguing matchups. There will be plenty of basketball to enjoy, and The Sporting News has all the details on how to watch NBA games on Black Friday.
