The NBA 2k League is set to play its first of four consecutive weeks of regular season contests.

With “The Tipoff” now in the books, all 17 NBA 2k League franchises are focused on putting themselves in good position for the NBA 2k League’s midseason tournament by winning as many of their regular season contests over the next four weeks as possible.

That action gets going this Friday, May 11, with three games involving six teams and continues on Saturday, May 12 with seven more games. The schedule for Week 1 is as follows:

Friday, May 11

  • 76ers GC vs. Bucks Gaming, 7 p.m. ET
  • Knicks Gaming vs. Warriors Gaming Squad, 8 p.m. ET
  • Blazer5 Gaming vs. Magic Gaming, 9 p.m. ET

Saturday, May 12

  • Grizz Gaming vs. Pacers Gaming, 11 a.m. ET
  • Mavs Gaming vs. Raptors Uprising GC, 12 p.m. ET
  • Celtics Crossover Gaming vs. Wizards District Gaming, 1 p.m. ET
  • Jazz Gaming vs. Kings Guard Gaming, 4 p.m. ET
  • Celtics Crossover Gaming vs. Raptors Uprising GC, 5 p.m. ET
  • Heat Check Gaming vs. Pistons GT, 6 p.m. ET
  • Cavs Legion GC vs. Jazz Gaming, 7 p.m. ET

According to a press release from the league, all regular season weeks will follow this same schedule going forward as far as days of the week and times, with the matchups between teams changing from week to week. After four weeks of regular season play, the midseason tournament will be held and seeded based on teams’ records during this stretch.

Fans will get to see if 76ers GC can build on its momentum from winning “The Tipoff” on Friday night. Saturday will bring an opportunity for Grizz Gaming to get its first win of the season, as they went 0-4 in the season-opening tourney. All games can be streamed live on the NBA 2k League’s Twitch channel.
