Basketball enthusiasts have plenty to look forward to this October as the NBA season tips off with a historic first – LeBron James and his son Bronny James are teaming up on the Los Angeles Lakers. This season is set to feature standout performances from rising stars like Victor Wembanyama, following his outstanding debut last year, and Anthony Edwards, poised for a breakout year.

Players who missed significant time last season due to injuries, such as Zion Williamson and Kevin Durant, who made his return during the 2024 Paris Olympics, are expected to return to full strength this season.

With lunchtime games on the schedule, clubs have a golden opportunity starting October 22, when the first game begins, to offer attractive lunch specials that keep patrons fuelled while they’re around to catch all the excitement.
