It seems like it will be time to check out the printable 2025 NBA playoff bracket before you know it. Just after March Madness wraps up, we’ll have a short break before the Play-in games get started. We expect the 2025 NBA Play-in tournament to kick-off on April 15th and go through the 18th. The NBA could move this up a day to start on the 14th if they decide not to give the teams a day off. The regular season concludes on April 13th. We’ll keep you posted when the 2024-25 NBA regular season schedule and playoff dates get confirmed.
*Note: All dates listed are notional and based on the 2023-24 NBA postseason schedule and timing. Once confirmed by the NBA, we’ll let you know.
What TV Channels will the 2025 NBA Playoffs be Shown on?
We expect the 2025 NBA Playoff TV schedule to be pretty similar to what the league has done for the 2024 NBA Playoffs. We’ll see games on ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, TNT, and NBA TV. The TNT deal goes away after next year, so we’ll see what happens there with the broadcast teams. If things change before the playoff schedule starts up, we’ll keep you posted.
