The Milwaukee Bucks have unveiled their full 82-game regular-season schedule for the 2026-2027 NBA campaign. All game times are listed in Central Time and are subject to change. The announcement follows a tight 128-126 preseason victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on October 7, a positive sign as the team prepares for its next preseason test against the Charlotte Hornets on October 11.
Every Bucks game will be available on over-the-air television throughout Wisconsin. The primary local broadcast partner is MY24 in Milwaukee, with additional coverage provided by statewide affiliate stations. For nationally televised contests, the schedule indicates broadcasts on NBA TV and Prime Video, such as the January 28 home game against the Miami Heat.
The regular season tips off in late October. Milwaukee opens with a road game against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday, October 21. Key early-season tests include a visit to the Boston Celtics on November 4 and a home showdown with the Los Angeles Lakers on November 11. A challenging West Coast road trip in late January features games against the Lakers, Sacramento Kings, Golden State Warriors, Denver Nuggets, and Utah Jazz.
The schedule is packed with division rivalries. The Bucks face the Chicago Bulls and Indiana Pacers multiple times, including a preseason matchup with Chicago on October 14.
Milwaukee's preseason form has been mixed, offering a glimpse of the team's conditioning. They secured a narrow 128-126 win against the Oklahoma City Thunder on October 7, a game that likely saw high scoring from the perimeter. Just two days prior, on October 5, they fell to the Minnesota Timberwolves by a score of 97-116. These results highlight areas for adjustment before the games start to count in the standings.
The team has also outlined its promotional calendar for the upcoming season. Fiserv Forum will host a variety of theme nights and giveaway events designed to engage the fanbase. Specific details on these fandom crossover games and special events will be released closer to each date, adding extra excitement to the home game experience.
The schedule sets the stage for another demanding NBA year. With broadcast access secured for all Wisconsin fans and a slate full of marquee opponents, the Bucks' path back to championship contention is now clearly mapped out. Their immediate focus, however, is on final preseason preparations before the real action begins.
