The Toronto Raptors are set to kick off the upcoming NBA season at home for the 14th time in the last 15 years. The NBA revealed the complete schedule for the 2026-27 season on Thursday, with the Raptors scheduled to tip off on October 21 against the Chicago Bulls at Scotiabank Arena. Following their home opener, Toronto will hit the road to face the Washington Wizards two days later.
Among the notable home matchups, fans can look forward to back-to-back games against the reigning champions, the New York Knicks, on November 15 and 17. Additionally, the San Antonio Spurs, led by Victor Wembanyama, will visit on December 10, while Canadian star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder will make an appearance on March 10.
January will be the busiest month for the Raptors, with a total of 17 games on the schedule, including a six-game home stretch. Throughout the season, the team will face 15 back-to-back games, with seven of them not requiring any travel.
Although 80 of Toronto’s 82 games have been announced, two matchups will be scheduled following the conclusion of the in-season NBA Cup tournament group stage. Once again, the Raptors have been excluded from playing on Christmas Day, a tradition they have not partaken in since their championship-winning season in 2019.
The Raptors are gearing up for an action-packed season with a mix of exciting matchups both at home and on the road, promising an engaging experience for fans supporting the team.
