Opening week is stacked, with the defending Eastern Conference champion Boston Celtics hosting the Philadelphia 76ers on Oct. 18 -- the first night of the season -- followed by the Los Angeles Lakers looking to spoil ring night for the NBA champion Golden State Warriors.
The following night features four teams with massive questions hovering over them. Zion Williamson is slated to return after an injured foot sidelined him for the entire 2021-22 campaign.
