The National Basketball Association (NBA) are returning to The O2 on 17 January 2019. The NBA London Game 2019 presented by Norwegian will feature the Washington Wizards and the New York Knicks, and marks the ninth regular-season NBA game to be played in London in as many years.

The Wizards’ roster currently features All-Star guards Bradley Beal and John Wall, who last season led the Wizards in points and assists, respectively, as well as eight-time NBA All-Star center Dwight Howard.  The Knicks’ roster currently features Latvian forward Kristaps Porzingis, French point guard Frank Ntilikina and guard Tim Hardaway Jr.

The game will be broadcast by the NBA’s broadcast partners across Europe, the Middle East and Africa and on NBA League Pass International.

The NBA London Game 2019 presented by Norwegian represents the Knicks’ third game in the capital, having played regular-season games against the Detroit Pistons in 2013 and the Milwaukee Bucks in 2015.  The Wizards will be playing their first game in the UK.  All eight previous regular-season NBA games in London sold-out.

The NBA London Game 2019 will be supported by a full roster of marketing partners, including Beats by Dr. Dre, Foot Locker, Gatorade, Nike, SAP and Tissot.
