On December 14th, 2019, the Phoenix Suns will face off against the San Antonio Spurs in Mexico City, the second time in three seasons the two teams will meet in our southern border nation’s capital.
From a marketing standpoint, Mexico of course is a special place for NBA franchise’s like the Phoenix Suns and San Antonio Spurs as the two team’s home states borders Mexico with the region highly interlocked both economically and politically.
Arizona borders the Mexican state of Sonora and a small part of Baja California near Yuma, while Texas shares borders with Chihuahua, Coahuila, a tiny portion of Nuevo Leon near Laredo, and Tamaulipas.
