Basketball fans, mark your calendars! The next two Dallas Mavericks games are coming to your screens, and you won’t want to miss this action-packed lineup. Here’s the lowdown on how to catch all the excitement, with a few surprises along the way.
But here’s where it gets a little tricky—and this is the part most people miss. On Saturday, January 17th, the sports frenzy kicks off at 3 p.m. on KCBD with a Big Ten Basketball showdown between Michigan and Oregon. And this is where it gets interesting: at 4 p.m., you’ll need to switch over to KMYL My Lubbock TV to keep watching the game. Why the switch? It’s all about broadcasting schedules, but it’s a small price to pay for non-stop basketball.
Right after the college game wraps up, at 4 p.m., KCBD brings you the Dallas Mavericks hosting the Utah Jazz. This NBA clash promises high-energy plays and intense competition. Stick around for NewsChannel 11 at 6 p.m., with more coverage rolling in around 6:30 p.m.
Now, here’s where it gets even better—and a little controversial. On Monday, January 19th, KCBD is pulling out all the stops with an MLK, Jr. Day triple-header on the NBA on NBC. The lineup is nothing short of spectacular:
- 1 p.m. CT: Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Cleveland Cavaliers
- 4 p.m. CT: Dallas Mavericks vs. New York Knicks
- 7 p.m. CT: Boston Celtics vs. Detroit Pistons
But wait—there’s a catch. While KCBD will air the triple-header, the Mavs’ local broadcast at 4 p.m. CT will be on My Lubbock TV. Why the split? It’s a strategic move to maximize viewership across platforms, but it’s also a reminder to double-check your channels. Is this a smart move, or does it complicate things for fans? Let us know in the comments!
