For once, it’s OK to sneak a peek at your Christmas present.
The NBA on Wednesday unveiled its national TV broadcasts for the first week of the upcoming season, its Christmas lineup, and its Martin Luther King Day schedule. The announcement revealed two more games from the Utah Jazz’s 2018-19 schedule—including the team’s first Christmas Day contest in more than 20 years.
The Jazz will host Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers on December 25 at Vivint Smart Home Arena. Tipoff time for the game has yet to be determined.
The Jazz will also be featured on ESPN during the NBA’s opening week, when Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant and the rest of the defending champion Golden State Warriors visit Vivint Smart Home Arena on October 19.
