The 2022–23 NBA season is the 77th season of the National Basketball Association (NBA), the regular season began on October 18, 2022, and is scheduled to end on April 9, 2023. The 2023 NBA All-Star Game is scheduled to be played on February 19, 2023, at Vivint Arena in Salt Lake City.[1] The playoffs are then scheduled to begin on April 15, 2023, and ending with the NBA Finals in June 2023. The Golden State Warriors are the defending NBA champions, having won the record-extending seventh title in the previous season.

Maurice Podoloff Trophy

Beginning with this season, the team who finished with the best overall regular season record would receive the Maurice Podoloff Trophy, named in honor of Maurice Podoloff, who served as the commissioner of the NBA from 1946 to 1963. The Podoloff Trophy was originally given to the NBA's most valuable player of the regular season until 2021. The league also announced updated trophy designs for the Sportsmanship Award, Teammate of the Year Award, Executive of the Year Award, and the Coach of the Year Award.[2]

Draft

The 2022 NBA draft took place on June 23, 2022, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.[7] Paolo Banchero was selected with the first overall pick by the Orlando Magic.

Free agency

With the previous season's NBA Finals ending in June for the first time since 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic began, the period for free agency returned to its normal July 1 starting date, along with the July moratorium period before players can begin signing new contracts.[8]

In July 2022, the Philadelphia 76ers were charged with violating the league's moratorium in free agency discussions with P. J. Tucker and Danuel House and subsequently had two second round picks rescinded by the league.[9][10]

ABC air NBA Saturday Primetime on eight selected Saturdays, and NBA Sunday Showcase on three selected Sundays in the form of doubleheaders.[41] TNT continues to air Tuesday games all season and Thursday games during the second half of the season.[42] NBA TV will air selected games not broadcast on ABC, ESPN, or TNT, primarily on Mondays all season and Thursdays in the first half of the season.[43]

Five Christmas Day games are scheduled this season. For the first time ESPN and ABC will simulcast all of them.[32] They will have to compete with NFL Christmas Day games for viewers, with the NFL planning its tripleheader for the first time on that day.[44]

Four games will be held on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, with TNT and NBA TV each airing two of them.[32]

January 24–28 has been designated as "NBA Rivals Week" with 11 total nationally televised games featuring "classic and budding rivalries between teams and players".[32] In addition to the regular Tuesday and Thursday doubleheaders on TNT, and ESPN's Wednesday doubleheader, NBA TV will have a doubleheader on that Friday, January 27, and ABC will have a tripleheader on that Saturday, January 28.[32]

ESPN will also air a doubleheader on the final day of the regular season, April 9, featuring games with playoff implications.[32]

In September 2022, Ted Leonsis's Monumental Sports & Entertainment bought out NBCUniversal's ownership stake in NBC Sports Washington, which carries broadcasts of the Washington Wizards and the NHL's Washington Capitals, both Monumental-owned teams. Monumental initially took minority ownership of the network in 2016. NBC will provide transitional corporate, technical, and distribution support up to 18 months after the sale, and Monumental plans to rebrand the network after the 2022–23 season.[45][46]

In October 2022, the Clippers launched a direct-to-consumer streaming service called ClipperVision. The service includes all non-national games.[47]

Notable occurrences

  • The NBA and NBPA announced a pension plan for former ABA players who played at least three seasons in the league.[48]

The defensive player who commits the foul will be assessed one common personal foul. Previously, the penalty was a common personal foul on the offending player in addition to a side out for the offensive team if they were not in the bonus.[50]
  • Following the death of 11-time champion Bill Russell, the NBA permanently retired the number 6 across the league, the first time a player's number has been retired across the league.[51] However, players who had the number 6 beforehand can keep their number unless they voluntarily change it or retire.[52]
