Since they're not having much success in the United States this season, the 76ers decided to try their luck overseas next season.
Well, kind of.
As part of the NBA's Global Game schedule (David Stern, anyone?) the 76ers will play 2 preseason games in Eurpoe.
The first of the two contests will take place on October 6th in Bilbao, Spain. Their opponent will be Uxue Bilboa Basket.
The next game, taking place two days later on October 8th, will be in Manchester, England with the Sixers squaring off against the Thunder.
The Sixers, along with the Thunder, are 2 of the 8 teams slated to travel overseas next preseason. The other six squads are: the Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors, Washington Wizards, Chicago Bulls, and Indiana Pacers.
