Basketball Season Up Next, Preseason Schedule Released

By Addam Francisco

Football season is starting, which means basketball season is up next. Yes, the regular season for our Thunder starts in about two months but the preseason is right around the corner. Unfortunately though, we’ll only see one of the Thunder preseason games on TV as usual, so that means that we will have to either attend the games, or tune into 98.1 WWLS, the Sports Animal for game coverage. Something interesting this preseason is Enes Kanter facing his former squad from Turkey along with returning to his former NBA home Utah to play the Jazz in the final preseason game. Yes, Tulsa fans will get to see them play, as they play the Mavericks at the BOK Center.

Full preseason schedule

• Wednesday, Oct. 7 at Minnesota Timberwolves 7 p.m.
• Friday, Oct. 9 vs. Fenerbahce Ulker (Kanter’s former team) 7 p.m.
• Tuesday, Oct. 13 vs. Dallas Mavericks 7 p.m. (Tulsa)
• Friday, Oct. 16 at Memphis Grizzlies 7 p.m.
• Sunday, Oct. 18 vs. Denver Nuggets 6 p.m.
