NBA 2023-24 Season: Essential dates, live broadcast, and streaming details

As the 2023-24 NBA season approaches, slated to commence on October 24, 2023, and conclude on April 14, 2024, an additional highlight is the introduction of the in-season tournament running from November 3 to December 9. Notably, all tournament games, excluding the final, will contribute to the regular season standings. Stephen Curry continues to dominate the salary charts, becoming the highest earner for the seventh consecutive season, with an impressive sum of just under 52 million dollars, marking the first NBA salary to surpass 50 million dollars.

In other significant developments, Phoenix's Kevin Durant is poised to break into the top 10 on the all-time scoring list this season. With a total of 26,892 points, he stands a mere 54 points away from surpassing No. 12 Hakeem Olajuwon, and within striking distance of No. 11 Elvin Hayes (27,313) and No. 10 Moses Malone (27,409) by 421 and 517 points, respectively.

His ascension to the top 10 is expected to be a standout achievement, with other players like James Harden of Philadelphia and Russell Westbrook of the Los Angeles Clippers trailing by approximately 3,000 points. While Stephen Curry of Golden State could potentially join the top 10 within three seasons, Portland's Damian Lillard and Milwaukee's Giannis Antetokounmpo are projected to require a longer timeline before reaching this milestone.
