It's a yearly tradition for the Thunder to play at OKC on New Year's Eve. That was the one holiday you could bank they'd play on. That continues against the Trail Blazers. Of course, the Thunder have an active 16-game win streak over the Trail Blazers that spans four seasons.

The Thunder is scheduled to make 34 nationally broadcasted appearances during the 2025-26 season with 10 games on Amazon Prime Video, eight games on ESPN/ESPN App, seven games on NBC/Peacock, five games on ABC/ESPN App and four games on Peacock.
