The Toronto Raptors are set to kick off the upcoming NBA season at their home court, marking the 14th time in the last 15 years they have done so. The NBA recently unveiled the complete schedule for the 2026-27 season, with the Raptors scheduled to face the Chicago Bulls at Scotiabank Arena on October 21. Following this, their first away game will be against the Washington Wizards two days later.
Among the noteworthy home games on the agenda are consecutive matchups against the reigning champions, the New York Knicks, on November 15 and 17. Additionally, fans can anticipate an exciting showdown when Victor Wembanyama’s San Antonio Spurs visit on December 10, followed by a clash with Canadian star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder on March 10.
January will prove to be the busiest month for the Raptors, with a total of 17 games scheduled, including a six-game stint at home. Throughout the season, they are set to participate in 15 back-to-back games, seven of which will not require any travel.
The schedule currently includes 80 out of the total 82 games, with the remaining two games to be arranged following the conclusion of the group stage in the in-season NBA Cup tournament. Despite their absence from the coveted Christmas Day lineup, a tradition they have missed since 2019 as defending champions, the Raptors are ready to embark on an action-packed season ahead.
