Suns to Host New Zealand Breakers of Australasia’s NBL in 2018 NBA Preseason

The National Basketball Association (NBA) and the National Basketball League (NBL) today announced that for the second consecutive year, NBL teams will travel to the U.S. to participate in the NBA preseason.

The Phoenix Suns will host the New Zealand Breakers at Talking Stick Resort Arena on Oct. 3. This is the second consecutive year that the Suns will host an NBL team in Phoenix as the Suns defeated the Brisbane Bullets 114-93 during the 2017 preseason.

Five NBL teams will play a total of seven games against NBA teams in the 2018 NBA preseason from Sept.
