On which channel will Vietnamese audiences watch the new season of American professional basketball?

FPT Play continues to hold the copyright to broadcast the entire NBA Regular Season 2025-2026, giving Vietnamese audiences the opportunity to fully watch top matches from the main round, All-Star, Playoffs to Finals.

FPT Play remains the only unit in Vietnam that owns the broadcasting rights for the 2025-2026 Regular Season of the National Basketball Association (NBA). This is the second consecutive year that the platform has accompanied the most attractive sports tournament on the planet, giving audiences the opportunity to enjoy the entire season - from the main round, All-Star to the playoffs and finals.

The 2025-2026 NBA season will officially kick off at dawn on October 22 (Vietnam time). In addition to maintaining high professional quality, this season is expected to witness many changes when a series of strong teams have a significant "blood change" in their lineup. Top stars such as Stephen Curry, LeBron James, Nikola Jokic, Luka Doncic or Jayson Tatum are still asserting their position. In addition, the organizing committee also adjusted the match schedule to reduce travel, helping teams ensure physical strength and improve the quality of each match.

Opening Week: Warriors vs. Lakers

The first week of competition (from October 22 to October 29) promises to be dramatic with a series of key matches, especially the competition between the Golden State Warriors and the Los Angeles Lakers - two "empires" of modern basketball. The confrontation between Stephen Curry and LeBron James not only has professional value but is also a clash between two icons of a generation, promising eye-catching plays and explosive emotions.

On the Warriors side, the legendary core of Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green is still there. However, signs of age have begun to affect their performance, while young factors such as Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody have not yet made a breakthrough. Physical strength and defensive ability, especially in the area under the basket, are weaknesses that are easily exploited.

October 22 is the big match between Golden State Warrior and Los Angeles Lakers

The Lakers, on the other hand, have a deep and balanced squad. Anthony Davis continues to carry the defense, and LeBron James remains an irreplaceable leader despite turning 40. Players like Rui Hachimura and Austin Reaves are showing clear improvement, helping the Lakers become a top contender in the West. Overall, the Lakers have the edge in size and depth, but the Warriors have home court advantage and experience. This is definitely a game that can be decided in the final minutes.

Rockets – Thunder: Stage of the new generation

The Houston Rockets and Oklahoma City Thunder clash is a fast-paced, youthful affair that represents the new generation of the NBA. Both teams are building their teams around young players and see this season as an important stepping stone to further advancement.

The Houston Rockets continue to put their faith in faces like Alperen Şengün and Amen Thompson. However, battle experience is still a big limitation, especially in the ability to defend and maintain stability.

Fans in Vietnam have the chance to watch basketball legends compete with Vietnamese commentary

Oklahoma City Thunder is currently highly rated in the West. With Shai Gilgeous-Alexander as the leader, this team has a deep squad and a cohesive style of play. Fighting spirit and speed are strengths that help Thunder put constant pressure on opponents. If they maintain their form, Thunder can completely win the opening match.

All matches within the framework of NBA 2025-2026 – including the key clashes between Warriors – Lakers or Rockets – Thunder – will be broadcast live and exclusively on FPT Play, giving Vietnamese audiences the opportunity to enjoy every top play, every decisive shot and breathtaking dramatic moments.

Also on October 22, Houston Rockets and Oklahoma City Thunder will play.
