The Cleveland Cavaliers 2016-17 NBA Regular Season schedule was released on Thursday.

The Cavs open up at home against the New York Knicks on Tuesday. Oct. 25 at 8:00 p.m. The players will receive their championship rings and the championship banner will be raised.

The biggest regular season game of the year will feature the Cavs vs. Golden State Warriors on Christmas Day at 2:30 p.m. at Quicken Loans Arena.

The two teams meet again on Jan. 16 at Oracle Arena in Oakland, for a Monday night showdown, which tips off at 8 p.m. ET.

The Cavs will play 34 games on national television- ten on ESPN, nine on TNT, nine on NBA TV, and six on ABC.

Here are a few notable games on the schedule:

Thursday, Dec. 1 vs. Clippers 8 p.m.
Saturday, Jan. 21 vs. Spurs 8:30 p.m.

Thursday, Feb. 9 @ Thunder 8 p.m.

Those might be the only teams with a chance at facing the Cavs in the 2017 NBA Finals, as Cleveland is expected to cruise to a third-straight NBA Finals appearance, barring injury.
