The Toronto Raptors are set to kick off the upcoming NBA season at home for the 14th time in the last 15 years. The NBA recently unveiled the complete schedule for the 2026-27 season, revealing that the Raptors will face off against the Chicago Bulls at Scotiabank Arena on October 21. Two days later, Toronto will hit the road to play against the Washington Wizards.
Some key home games to look out for include consecutive matchups against the reigning champions, the New York Knicks, on November 15 and 17. Additionally, fans can anticipate a showdown against Victor Wembanyama’s San Antonio Spurs on December 10, and a visit from Canadian star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder on March 10.
January will be the busiest month for the Raptors, with a total of 17 games scheduled, including a six-game stretch at home. Throughout the season, Toronto will participate in 15 back-to-back games, seven of which won’t require any travel.
The NBA has released details for 80 of the Raptors’ 82 games, with the remaining two matches to be arranged after the group stage of the in-season NBA Cup tournament. However, Toronto will not be featured in the league’s Christmas Day lineup this year. The last time the Raptors played on December 25 was in 2019 when they were the defending NBA champions.
