NBA 2025 Offseason Includes Major Trades, Extensions Across Teams

The 2025-26 NBA offseason has seen several bold and franchise-altering moves, including the Boston Celtics breaking up their championship roster by trading Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porziņģis following an Achilles injury to Jayson Tatum. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Lakers have notably resisted giving LeBron James all his contract demands this summer, marking a shift from their previous approach. The Denver Nuggets made significant trades, acquiring Cameron Johnson and Jonas Valanciunas while promoting from within to fill key executive and coaching positions after parting ways with their GM and head coach. The upcoming NBA season promises excitement with a schedule featuring 247 nationally televised games, international preseason matchups, and the Hall of Fame Enshrinement Weekend honoring stars like Carmelo Anthony and Dwight Howard. NBC and Peacock will provide prime-time coverage starting with high-profile opening night games featuring stars such as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Stephen Curry. These developments collectively point to a dynamic season ahead filled with new team compositions and enhanced fan access.
