Miami Heat will face the New Jersey Nets in a pre-season game at London's O2 Arena, the NBA has confirmed.
Last year, a sell-out crowd filled the O2 Arena to watch Boston Celtics defeat the Minnesota Timberwolves 92-81.
And on 12 October the venue will host another pre-season game, this time between the Heat and the Nets.
The match will form part of the four-game NBA Europe Live tour that will also visit the cities of Paris, Berlin and Barcelona.
"Our third consecutive year of the NBA Europe Live is another step in our ongoing efforts to bring the excitement of the NBA to our loyal and passionate fans across Europe," said NBA commissioner David Stern.
Earlier in the year, the NBA revealed that it hoped to establish a franchise in Europe within a decade.
