# NBA referee assignments, Thursday, November 5, 2026

Every game, its crew and the whistle read. Page: https://whistlebets.com/nba/2026-11-05

> Monty: Two games, two whistles. Orlando at Phoenix is busy, so Desmond Bane should bring a lawyer and a Costco pack of fouls. Miami at GS is average, which is the most forgettable thing a whistle can be, so enjoy it before the other game turns into a free-throw s***show.
