More games coming to Manchester and Paris"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>LONDON \u2014 The NBA will play at least six regular-season games in Europe over the next three seasons, starting with a pair of games between the Memphis Grizzlies and Orlando Magic this season.<\/p>\n<p>The Grizzlies and Magic will play in Berlin on Jan. 15, then in London on Jan. 18.<\/p>\n<p>The league will play games at Manchester, England and Paris in the 2026-27 season, then return to Berlin and Paris for games in the 2027-28 season. The games will be held at Berlin&#8217;s Uber Arena, London&#8217;s The O2, Manchester&#8217;s Co-op Live and Paris&#8217; Accor Arena.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Announcing the next three season&#8217;s regular-season games in Europe reflects the incredible momentum and appetite for NBA basketball in France, Germany, the UK and across the region,&#8221; said George Aivazoglou, the NBA&#8217;s managing director for Europe and the Middle East. &#8220;We look forward to welcoming the Grizzlies and the Magic to Berlin and London and to engaging fans, players and the local communities through the games and the surrounding events.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Berlin game in January will be the NBA&#8217;s 14th in Germany since 1984, but the first regular-season game in the country \u2014 and will serve as a homecoming for Magic players Franz and Moritz Wagner, both of whom play for Germany&#8217;s national team.<\/p>\n<p>The London game this season will be the 10th regular-season contest in that city. Manchester has never played host to a regular-season game, and Paris has been the site of five regular-season contests \u2014 including two last season between the Indiana Pacers and San Antonio Spurs. French star Victor Wembanyama plays for the Spurs, which made them a logical choice to go to Paris for last season&#8217;s series of games.<\/p>\n<p>The full NBA schedule for this season is expected to be released in mid-August. The dates and participating teams for the games in 2027 and 2028 will be announced prior to the 2026-27 and 2027-28 NBA seasons, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p>AP NBA: <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/nba\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/nba<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LONDON \u2014 The NBA will play at least six regular-season games in Europe over the next three seasons,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":299939,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3795],"tags":[7,2655,2654,74,294,2657,4153,2656,71,293,177,4070,6,67,1217,2659,66,2658,2652,9087,422,2653],"class_list":{"0":"post-299938","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-memphis-grizzlies","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-cars","10":"tag-classifieds","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-grizzlies","13":"tag-homes","14":"tag-international","15":"tag-jobs","16":"tag-local","17":"tag-memphis","18":"tag-memphis-grizzlies","19":"tag-memphisgrizzlies","20":"tag-nba","21":"tag-news","22":"tag-radio","23":"tag-salt-lake","24":"tag-sports","25":"tag-television","26":"tag-traffic","27":"tag-travel","28":"tag-utah","29":"tag-weather"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/115257055994093098","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299938","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=299938"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299938\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/299939"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=299938"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=299938"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=299938"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
