The N.B.A. is back (so soon!) with a doubleheader on opening night, featuring several of the league’s biggest names: LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry and Kawhi Leonard.
For Durant, it’s a much-anticipated regular-season debut with the Nets, alongside Kyrie Irving. And it’s a reunion, as the Nets face off against his former team, the Golden State Warriors, and former teammate in Curry.
For James, it’s ring night: His Los Angeles Lakers will have the official ceremony for the championship they won just over 10 weeks ago. Then they will take on Leonard and the Clippers in the night’s second game.
