NBA weekend schedule, November 6-9: 31 games with tip times and TV, NBA Cup group play Friday and Nuggets-Pacers in Mexico City

After Wednesday’s 14-game night and a two-game Thursday, the NBA’s weekend is a full one: 9 games on Friday, November 6, then 7 on Saturday, 7 on Sunday and 8 on Monday, November 9, for 31 games in four days. Friday is all NBA Cup group play, with 76ers at Cavaliers and Trail Blazers at Lakers the two games on Prime Video, and Saturday’s opener is the Mexico City game, Denver against Indiana at Arena CDMX at 5 p.m. ET on NBA TV. All times below are Eastern with Cairo times alongside, and Cairo is seven hours ahead, so most evening tips land after midnight there. Records are through Monday’s games and will change after Wednesday and Thursday, and our Wednesday schedule has the 14-game Wednesday slate.
