Put away the preseason odds and predictions. The 2021-22 NBA season has officially arrived.

After receiving their 2021 championship rings, the Bucks kicked off their pursuit of back-to-back titles by defeating the Nets on Tuesday night. Two-time NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo led Milwaukee with a team-high 32 points, 14 rebounds and seven assists to the delight of the Fiserv Forum crowd.

Over in Los Angeles, the Warriors took down a new-look Lakers team, as six different Golden State players hit double-figures in the scoring department. Stephen Curry struggled from the field, but he finished with his first triple-double (21 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists) since 2016.

Now, the new campaign will begin in earnest with an 11-game slate on Wednesday night. Here's everything you need to know about watching the start of the 2021-22 regular season.
