Clippers open 2025-26 regular season Oct. 22 at Utah

The Clippers will open the 2025-26 season on the road against the Utah Jazz on Oct. 22, two days before their home opener against the Phoenix Suns followed by the Portland Trail Blazers at Intuit Dome.

The Clippers, along with the other 29 teams, unveiled their schedule Thursday. After playing at the Golden State Warriors on Oct. 28, the Clippers play at home for six of their following seven games.

Their schedule features 21 nationally televised games and 15 back-to-backs.

Marquee home matchups for the Clippers this season include the Lakers on Dec. 20 and Jan. 22; the Warriors on Jan. 5 and April 12 in the regular-season finale; and the Denver Nuggets on Nov. 12 and Feb. 19.

The national TV games include playing the Oklahoma City Thunder on Nov. 4 on NBC/Peacock; the Trail Blazers on Dec. 26 on Amazon Prime; the New York Knicks on March 9 on Peacock. and the Sacramento Kings on March 14 on ESPN/ESPN App.

Four of the back-to-back series will be at home, eight will be on the road and four are split. The Clippers also have two miniseries on the road, both back-to-backs: in February at Houston before the All-Star break, and in March at New Orleans Pelicans to cap a stretch of five games in seven days.

The Clippers play 18 games in March, the heaviest load of their season. They will play 15 games in each November and January.

In what could be an emotional homecoming, guard Norman Powell returns when the Miami Heat visit the Intuit Dome. Powell, a fan favorite during his three seasons in L.A., was traded in the offseason to the Heat in a three-team trade that brought guard John Collins to the Clippers.

The Clippers also added center Brook Lopez and guard Bradley Beal and reunited with 12-time All-Star Chris Paul in the offseason to join a veteran lineup of Kawhi Leonard, James Harden, Ivica Zubac.

Billing this season as “Locked In”, the Clippers will be looking to improve on last season’s 50-32 regular-season record and playoff run. The team was ousted in a hard-fought seven-game first round series by the Denver Nuggets, ending their 2024-25 campaign.
