Four, per ESPN: Celtics at Magic (3:30 p.m. ET), Nets at Pacers (5 p.m. ET), Clippers at Warriors (8:30 p.m. ET) and Raptors at Lakers (9 p.m. ET). Daylight saving time ended early Sunday, so those times are EST.

What channel are NBA games on tonight?
Each score card lists the TV and streaming networks ESPN reports for that game. Many regular-season games air on NBA League Pass and local regional networks rather than national TV.
What happened to Jalen Williams?
The Thunder said on Oct. 26, 2026, that Jalen Williams fractured his left fibula and dislocated his left ankle and needs surgery; guard Cason Wallace has a torn left labrum. No return timelines were given. See our Jalen Williams injury report.
Is Tyrese Haliburton injured?
Yes. The Pacers star has a strained left hamstring and will miss time, four games into his return from a torn Achilles, as we reported on Oct. 28.
How often do these scores update?
The scoreboard refreshes itself without reloading the page: about every 10 seconds while a game in the league you are viewing is live, and about every 60 seconds when nothing is live. It pauses while the browser tab is in the background and refreshes as soon as you come back. Scores come from ESPN's public scoreboard and can run a few seconds behind the TV broadcast.
