Knicks To Play Regular-Season Game Against Bucks In London

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — The NBA will play regular-season games in Mexico City and London as part of its extended global schedule for next season.

The Knicks will head across the pond for the second time in three years.

The Houston Rockets and Minnesota Timberwolves will play at the Mexico City Arena on Nov. 12. The Milwaukee Bucks will face New York at The O2 on Jan. 15.

The two regular-season games will follow the NBA global preseason games in October that will feature five teams — Brooklyn, Cleveland, Miami, Sacramento and San Antonio — playing a series of games in Brazil, China, Germany and Turkey.

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver says, "These regular-season games will bring the excitement and incredible competition of our league to more fans in Europe and Latin America."
