League champion CSKA Moscow will join two other Euroleague teams in playing exhibition games against NBA opponents this season, the NBA announced Wednesday.
FC Barcelona and Lietuvos Rytas of Lithuania also will appear on the Euroleague American tour, which features five games from Oct. 10-21.
CSKA Moscow, which won its sixth Euroleague title this season, visits Orlando on Oct. 10 and will play in Toronto four days later. The Golden State Warriors host Lietuvos Rytas on Oct. 21.
FC Barcelona, which has never played in the United States, has two games in Los Angeles. The Spanish team faces the Lakers on Oct. 18, then meets either the Clippers or Raptors in its second contest at the “Preseason Shootout.”
Barcelona beat the Philadelphia 76ers two years ago in an exhibition game in Spain.
