The 2023-24 NBA season is already less than three weeks away. Opening day is Tuesday, Oct. 24 with a nationally televised doubleheader. The defending champion Denver Nuggets host the Los Angeles Lakers in game one before the Phoenix Suns head to Golden State for a showdown with the Warriors for the nightcap. At least four former Kentucky Wildcats will take the hardwood for between those two contests.
But before we get to that point, roster cuts across the league must be made. Training camp officially began on Monday and the first preseason game tipped off on Wednesday morning in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
