'Tis the season for an NBA Christmas!

NBC Universal, Inc.

The most wonderful time of the year is returning to the NBA in December.

There are five NBA games slated to hit Christmas Day around the country, making for a joyous and competitive holiday season ahead. On top of the Christmas games, basketball fans will be able to tune in to the NBA In-Season Tournament as the knockout rounds take full force over the next few weeks.

Last season, we saw intense showdowns on Dec. 25, including the Nuggets taking down the Suns 128-125 in overtime while the 76ers battled past the Knicks 119-112 for a not-so-merry "Knicksmas' at the Garden.

Whether you are planning to grab some game tickets or catch the action from the comfort of your home, here are the five NBA games being played on 2023 Christmas Day:
