China To Host 2025 NBA Preseason
It was revealed on Friday morning that the NBA will be making a return to Asia in 2025, with China hosting two preseason games next year.
In an official statement, NBA deputy commissioner Mark Tatum said: “It’s my pleasure to announce that the Brooklyn Nets and the Phoenix Suns will play two pre-season games at Sands’ Venetian Arena on October 10 and October 12, 2025.
“Our games started being broadcast on CCTV in the mid-1980s, so it’s nearly a 40-year relationship. I think this is such a treat for us to be able to bring NBA games back here to Macau,” Tatum added.
