Mavs to play Real Madrid in preseason

MADRID: Luka Doncic is going back to where he got his start — for one game.

The NBA announced Wednesday (Thursday in Manila) that Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks will play a preseason game in October against reigning EuroLeague champion Real Madrid in Spain. The game will be the NBA's eighth in the Spanish capital and 20th in Spain, and comes 35 years after an NBA team first played in the country in 1988.
