Sure to conjure up memories of Elliot Perry and Evansville, Indiana native Calbert Cheaney, the Suns and Bullets will be meeting for a historic matchup in Phoenix on October 13th.
That’s the Brisbane Bullets. Of the National Basketball League. Still pretty cool.
Three NBL teams will meet NBA competition in preseason play. Along with the Suns and Bullets, Oklahoma City will host Melbourne United on October 2nd and the Utah Jazz will meet the Sydney Kings on October 3rd.
The NBL is an eight team league that plays its season between October and February.
