NBA News Philippines
NBA coverage written for Philippine readers — nightly results, trades and rumours, injury news and the arcs that shape a season, with every tip-off given in Philippine Standard Time (GMT+8) instead of US Eastern.
The Philippine NBA audience follows the league on a different clock to the one it is played on. Games land mid-morning here, which is why times are converted rather than reprinted, and why the day’s results are usually settled before the evening commute rather than after it.
Coverage runs year-round: the regular season and playoffs, then the draft and NBA Summer League through the off-season, when rosters turn over and the next year’s rotations start taking shape.
The NBA is one of three basketball threads here. The PBA covers the domestic professional game and Gilas Pilipinas the national team; each has its own section. Elsewhere: UAAP and PVL volleyball, boxing, and general Philippine sports news.
Frequently asked questions
What time do NBA games start in the Philippines?
Most games tip off during the Philippine morning — US evening games sit roughly 12-13 hours behind Philippine Standard Time. All times on LodiScore are converted to PST (GMT+8).
What is the NBA Summer League?
An off-season competition, played mainly in Las Vegas, where teams field rookies, recent draft picks and players competing for roster spots. It is the first look at a draft class in NBA uniforms.
Where can I watch the NBA in the Philippines?
Through the league's own broadcast and streaming partners in the region. LodiScore publishes results and news and does not stream games.
Does LodiScore cover the PBA as well as the NBA?
Yes. The PBA has its own section covering the conferences, the draft and team news, and Gilas Pilipinas is followed through the FIBA windows.
