Consecutive games, or "back-to-back games," have been a controversial topic for both NBA teams and fans. While teams worry about possible player injuries, fans are disappointed when their favorite stars are absent. In the last decade, "load management" has become a strategy to handle these games. However, the schedule does not affect everyone equally.

An analysis of all regular-season games since 2004-05, when the league expanded to 30 teams, reveals that Los Angeles Lakers have been the most benefited, with only 336 consecutive games in the last 20 years, the lowest number in the league. In contrast, teams like the Atlanta Hawks and the Milwaukee Bucks have had over 390 consecutive games, meaning greater wear and tear on their players.

Here is the full list of the 30 franchises according to the number of "back-to-back" games in the last 20 years:

  1. Atlanta Hawks: 393
  2. Milwaukee Bucks: 390
  3. Indiana Pacers: 386
  4. Chicago Bulls: 384
