After almost three months of absence, the NBA is back with another exciting regular season that is sure to thrill basketball fans everywhere. While defending champion Milwaukee Bucks is eager to defend their title, there are other contenders that are also vying for the Larry O’Brien trophy.

Aside from more games, a new season also brings with it new players as well as new and revamped jerseys for some of the league’s teams. Some of these jerseys are entirely new, while they could be retro jerseys that nod to a team’s history, such as the Golden State Warriors’ blue “Origin” jerseys that pay tribute to their past as the Philadelphia Warriors. 

But some regular-season games are bound to be better than others, whether it’s because of the teams competing, the talent level of their players, or their history against each other.
