2026 NBA Finals

The 2026 NBA Finals are scheduled to take place from Wednesday, June 3, to Friday, June 19, 2026. As the pinnacle of professional basketball, the series will be broadcast exclusively on ABC, with every game tipping off at 8:30 PM ET. This year’s schedule is unique; for the first time since 1970, the Finals will include no Sunday games. This shift was made to avoid programming conflicts with the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which begins in North America around the same time.
