The 2026-27 NBA season is drawing closer, and the league’s media day schedule wrapped up Monday with teams, players and coaches taking center stage ahead of training camp.
As usual, media day offered the first major look at storylines across the NBA before the start of preseason action. Among the notable scenes were LeBron James making his latest preseason appearance, Jaylen Brown drawing attention in Philadelphia and Jimmy Butler standing out with his earrings.
The annual event serves as an early checkpoint for the league, bringing together interviews, photo sessions and first impressions as teams begin preparations for the new campaign.
Preseason Build-Up Continues
With media obligations complete, attention now shifts toward training camps and preseason games as teams move closer to opening night. The conclusion of media days marks another step in the NBA’s transition from offseason activity to on-court competition.
