    I haven't found an official statement yet, but according to the german NBA site, the Rockets will play the Timberwolves on November 12th next season as a Regular Season game in Mexico City. Also, the Knicks will play the Bucks on January 15th in London.

    UPDATE: Confirmed.

    Why has Minnesota been selected so many times to play in Mexico? Are the timberwolves the official designated team of Mexico?

    They do have Ricky Rubio who is a Mexican. I thought we didn't have Garcia or Delfino anymore?

    Hopefully none of our players' heads wind up in one of those cartel head holes in a random field somewhere.

    Didn't the NBA learn anything from the Spurs fiasco in Mexico last year?

    Maybe they're moving to Mexico City and becoming Los Lobos Mexicanos.

    Mexico loves the Rockets due to their ownership of the Mexican Snake Team.
