NBA Summer League schedule 2023: How to watch every game from Las Vegas image

The Nuggets were crowned 2022-23 NBA champions just last month, the draft was a momentous occasion for 58 prospects, and free agency and trade rumors are lighting up social media. Basketball never stops.

After the completion of the California Classic and Salt Lake City Summer League tournaments, the Las Vegas Summer League will begin on Friday, July 7. There will be a total of 76 games played over 11 days at the Thomas & Mack Center and Cox Pavilion on the campus of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

Top picks from this year's NBA Draft such as Victor Wembanyama, Brandon Miller and Scoot Henderson will all be looking to make strong impressions in Las Vegas. But NBA Summer League isn't just about the high draft picks — the tournament also gives lesser-known players a chance to earn a roster spot ahead of the new season.

Here is a complete guide to watching NBA Summer League games, including the tipoff time and TV channel for each contest.
