Okay, so I wanted to figure out just how many home games those NBA teams play each season. It’s something I’ve always kind of wondered about, you know? So I started digging around to see if I could get a straight answer.
First, I hit up the usual spots online, just browsing around to see what people were saying. Found some stuff about the 2024-25 NBA season coming up soon. One thing caught my eye, I read that the Portland Trail Blazers already have 80 of their 82 games scheduled. Eighty out of eighty-two, can you believe it? That’s almost the whole season mapped out before it even starts.
Then I went a little deeper. I found out that the NBA regular season has a total of 82 games. Eighty-two games, that’s a lot of basketball! But the question is, how many of those are home games?
Well, I needed to find the number of all the games in one season. I discovered that a total of 2430 games are played in an NBA season. It’s a big number, right? And if each team plays 82 games, then I figured it must be a simple division. But it’s not that easy, is it?
Since every game involves two teams, I thought, “Okay, just divide 82 games in half.” So I did just that, I grabbed my phone and used the calculator. 82 divided by 2, that’s 41. So, each team must play 41 home games and 41 away games, right?
So there you have it. 41 home games for each team in the NBA regular season. It took a bit of digging and some simple math, but I finally got it. It’s funny how these little things can bug you until you find the answer.
- Started by looking at info about the upcoming 2024-25 season.
- Learned that the Portland Trail Blazers already have 80 of their 82 games scheduled.
- Discovered the NBA regular season has 82 games per team.
- Figured out that there are 2430 total games in an NBA season.
- Divided 82 by 2 to figure out each team plays 41 home games.
It’s pretty cool to know these things, and maybe I’ll catch a few more home games this season now that I know what’s up!
