DENVER, Oct. 26, 2007 - The NBA Development League today released its seven-game preseason schedule which tips off Thursday, November 15 with the Colorado 14ers hosting the Austin Toros at the Broomfield Events Center in Broomfield, Colorado.
After winning the D-League Western Division Post-Season Championship in the team's inaugural season, the 14ers will welcome their fans back for 2007-2008 with special pre-season ticket prices for the game against Austin. All seats will be available at half-price, with tickets starting as low as $4. Tickets will be available beginning November 3 at 10 am at the Broomfield Event Center Box Office, all Ticketmaster outlets, Ticketmaster Charge by Phone, and at www.Ticketmaster.com.
"This is a great opportunity for NBA fans to see tomorrows stars at half of our family friendly prices," said Broomfield Sports and Entertainment Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Rick Nichols.
The D-League preseason also features five preseason games played at out-of-market venues.
"Our preseason games provide us a nice opportunity to bring quality entertainment to some venues other than where our regular season games are played." said Chris Alpert, the D-League's Vice President of Basketball Operations and Player Personnel.
Each of the 14 D-League teams will play one preseason game before the regular season schedule tips off on Nov. 23.
The preseason schedule is highlighted by a game on Nov. 19 between the Los Angeles D-Fenders and Anaheim Arsenal in Paige Fieldhouse at Camp Pendelton, a marine training base in California. Players, coaches and dance team members will tour the base, visit wounded soldiers and will eat with the Marines in their cafeteria.
