Along with the rest of the NBA, the Oklahoma City Thunder have announced their entire 2026-27 regular season schedule. They’re a step closer to returning to action as we wait out the final couple of months of the annual summer offseason.

The Thunder will enter the 2026-27 season as the co-title favorite — alongside the San Antonio Spurs. Even though they spent the offseason making cost-cutting moves, they still have arguably the best roster across the league. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams are enough to buy you a seat at the contender table.

As usual, the Thunder will be heavily featured at the grand stage. They have 30 national TV games during the regular season. That’s the fifth-most in the league. It’ll be another year where OKC has title expectations.

The NBA announced 80 of the 82 games. The other two games will be announced once the 2026 NBA Cup group stage is completed. Let’s break down the Thunder’s team-by-team matchups for the 2026-27 regular season:
