Los Angeles Lakers, Minnesota Timberwolves and New York Knicks from NBA, and Regal FC Barcelona and AJ Milano from Euroleague Basketball, will play a series of preseason games this October as part of NBA Europe Live. Barcelona, London, Milan, and Paris will host the games.

On October 7th, Los Angeles Lakers will play Regal FC Barcelona at the Palau Sant Jordi. The match is included in the NBA Europe Live tour and brings Pau Gasol back to the city. The match will be presented on 22 April by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who is coming over to Barcelona.

“I started with FC Barcelona when I was 16 and I still have many fond memories of my days playing for them. The match will be particularly special for me as I’ll be able to show my team-mates what a beautiful city Barcelona is” Gasol remarked in comments published by the organisers.
