The LA Clippers and KTLA-TV have announced their local broadcast schedule for the 2026-27 NBA season, according to NBA.com. KTLA 5 will carry 10 regular-season games, along with the Clippers' Oct. 14 preseason game against the Denver Nuggets at Intuit Dome.
The first two preseason games won't be on KTLA 5. NBA.com reported that the Oct. 4 and Oct. 10 games will stream only on NBA League Pass.
The station's first regular-season broadcast is set for Oct. 21, when the Clippers open the season at home against the Sacramento Kings at Intuit Dome.
Brian Sieman, Jim Jackson and Mike Fratello will call the KTLA games. KTLA 5 sports reporter David Pingalore returns as the sideline reporter.
This season will be the 18th in which Clippers games have aired live on KTLA 5. As an official broadcast partner, the station will keep producing live pregame, halftime and postgame shows for its games. It will also run team-related programming, including player and superfan features, segments on "LA Unscripted," episodes of its streaming sports show "Out of Bounds" and the "Clippers Play of the Week."
Outside the Los Angeles market, NBA.com said the broadcasts will also air on select Southern California stations. These include KSWB-TV in San Diego, KGET-TV in Bakersfield, and KSEE-TV and KGPE-TV in Fresno.
