For the first time ever, two of the NBA’s best teams will celebrate their preseason abroad. The Celtics and Nuggets fly to Abu Dhabi for exciting preseason games.

It’s the latest move by Adam Silver and the NBA to further globalize the league, which continues to grow in popularity around the world with each passing season. The series itself would attract a lot of international attention. We don’t often see the final two NBA champions compete against each other in the preseason, let alone on such a big stage.

These games will feature Nikola Jokic, who has won three of the last four NBA MVP awards, as well as all-time MVP candidate and Olympic gold medalist Jayson Tatum. Are you interested in watching this star-studded preseason series? Of course you are!

Here’s everything you need to know about the NBA’s Abu Dhabi Series, including TV and streaming information for the games between the Celtics and Nuggets.
