The Golden State Warriors and Minnesota Timberwolves are officially booked for the NBA Global Games China 2017, with exhibitions in Shenzhen on Oct. 5 and Shanghai on Oct. 8.
The league revealed the dates Monday while confirming the teams, whose participation had been previously reported.
"I've never been to China, so I'm looking forward to my first visit," Golden State coach Steve Kerr told ESPN. "I've heard from [Warriors players] about their trip three years ago before I was coach here. ... I've heard about just the craziness that exists -- the incredible fan support that we will have from the Chinese NBA fans.
