The Denver Nuggets and Indiana Pacers play the NBA Mexico City Game on November 7, 2026, at Arena CDMX, with tip-off scheduled for 5pm US Eastern time and 4pm in Mexico City. The NBA lists NBA TV and NBA League Pass for US viewers. The game was under way when this guide was checked; the official live-updates page below carries the developing action.

The league published its event guide on November 6, ahead of Saturday’s meeting in Mexico. This is an international regular-season fixture with Denver and Indiana, rather than a separate exhibition carrying the same teams’ names. That distinction matters when choosing the dated game page and understanding what the result contributes to the season.

The same November 7 tip-off: 4pm Mexico City, 5pm US Eastern, 10pm GMT in Britain; 35 Mexico games include 16 regular-season and 19 preseason games

One tip-off time across three locations

The scheduled start is the same instant in three locations: 4pm in Mexico City, 5pm in the US Eastern zone and 10pm GMT in Britain, all on Saturday, November 7. Mexico City is on UTC−6, Eastern standard time is UTC−5 and Britain is on GMT for this date. The British time is a time-zone conversion; it does not establish a British broadcaster or subscription entitlement.

The NBA’s live-updates article identifies this specific Nuggets-Pacers meeting and provides the developing score and highlights separately from the event guide. Use that dated record to follow play instead of treating a preview as a completed result. A tip-off time is also a starting point, rather than a guaranteed finish time or a promise that a full replay will be immediately available afterwards.

The 35th Mexico game includes 16 regular-season fixtures

The NBA calls this the 35th game played in Mexico since 1992, comprising 16 regular-season games and 19 preseason games. Those figures answer two different questions: the event’s place in Mexico’s broader NBA history and its status as a game that counts in the regular season. The total of 35 should not be described as 35 regular-season meetings.

Arena CDMX has hosted the NBA’s Mexico City games since 2012 and is also home to the Mexico City Capitanes of the NBA G League. The league says this is the third consecutive year its Mexico game has coincided with Día de Muertos week, with court design and fan activities linked to the celebration. That provides the setting for a league game abroad without changing its competitive classification.

Use the US viewing notice within its territory

For the US, follow the NBA’s NBA TV notice or its official League Pass game route and the current account/player conditions. A listed coverage route does not by itself establish what a particular subscription includes. In Britain, 10pm GMT is the converted start time; this guide has not confirmed a specific British broadcaster, service entitlement or price. Use the current game listing for the viewer’s territory before choosing a subscription, rather than applying the US rights notice to Britain.

The practical match identity is therefore Denver versus Indiana, November 7, Arena CDMX, at the listed regional start time. The official live page is the route for ongoing action and subsequent published highlights. The NBA’s November 6 guide reported event tickets sold out, and this report promises neither remaining tickets nor a free, worldwide full replay. The game’s significance is a regular-season contest in Mexico, with viewing access determined by the service and territory.
