The Sixers’ Preseason Schedule is Set
Published:
No new information here, but confirmation of all four games, with times:
- Friday, September 28th – vs. Melbourne United (Wells Fargo Center, 7 p.m.)
- Monday, October 1st – vs. Orlando Magic (Wells Fargo Center 7 p.m.)
- Friday, October 5th – vs. Dallas Mavericks (Shanghai, China 7:30 a.m.)
- Monday, October 8th – vs. Dallas Mavericks (Shenzhen, China 8 a.m.)
Still no broadcast information for the China games:
“The two home games on Sept. 28 and Oct. 1 will be broadcast by one of NBC Sports Philadelphia’s two networks and 97.5 The Fanatic. Broadcast information for NBA China Games 2018 will be announced at a later date.”
I’m 99.9% sure these games will be on NBA TV. That was the case for Warriors/Timberwolves last year.
Australia’s Melbourne United won the 2017-18 NBL title. Former Sixer Casper Ware and UConn standout Josh Boone both play for United and were recently re-signed by the club.
