The Boston Celtics and Denver Nuggets will play a pair of preseason games this fall in Abu Dhabi.
The NBA Abu Dhabi Games 2024, as the series is called, will be played Oct. 4 and 6. The NBA first held games in the United Arab Emirates in 2022.
“We’re excited to bring two of the best teams in the NBA to Abu Dhabi in the Celtics and the Nuggets,” said Mark Tatum, the NBA deputy commissioner and COO. “There is incredible momentum around basketball in the UAE and across the Middle East, and we believe these games as well as our year-round grassroots development and fan engagement efforts will be a catalyst for the continued growth of the game in the region.”
The games are expected to reach fans through television and digital access in more than 200 countries and territories.
