The National Basketball Association (NBA) and Zignia Live announced today that The NBA Mexico City Game 2025 will be a regular-season game between the Dallas Mavericks and the Detroit Pistons in the Arena CDMX in Mexico City on Saturday, November 1. The game will be the league’s 34th in Mexico since 1992, more than any other country save the US and Canada. It will also coincide with local “Día de Muertos” celebrations for the second year in a row. Throughout the game, a variety of in-arena activations will highlight the “Dia de Muertos” theme, including a specially themed basketball floor and many fan participation activities. The Mavericks, who will play their seventh game in Mexico, are now led by 10-time NBA All-Star Anthony Davis, nine-time All-Star Kyrie Irving, and four-time NBA champion Klay Thompson. They also have the first overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft presented by State Farm. The Pistons, who will be making their third trip to Mexico, completed one of the most impressive year-over-year turnarounds in NBA history last season, entering the playoffs for the first time since 2016. Cade Cunningham, a 2025 NBA All-Star and All-NBA Third Team member, leads the team, which features a youthful core of standouts like as Jalen Duren, Jaden Ivey, Ausar Thompson, and Isaiah Stewart. The NBA Mexico City Game 2025 will be broadcast live in Mexico, Latin America, and around the world, reaching viewers in over 200 nations and territories via television, digital media, and social media. In addition to the game, the league and its partners will execute NBA Cares community outreach projects, Jr. NBA/Jr. WNBA youth and coach basketball development programming, and interactive fan activities that will provide fans with an NBA experience in Mexico City. Emirates, Jordan Brand, Michelob Ultra, PlayStation, and Tissot will all provide marketing assistance for the game and its surrounding festivities.
