Magic to play Raptors in regular-season game in London

The game will mark the league's sixth regular-season contest in London, one of seven international cities to host NBA games during 2015-16.

The Boston Celtics will take on the Sacramento Kings in Mexico City in a regular-season game on Dec. 3 while Milan, Madrid, Shenzhen, Shanghai and Rio De Janeiro will stage NBA pre-season games which were previously announced.

"We look forward to returning to London next season with a regular-season game between the Orlando Magic and the Toronto Raptors," NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said in a statement.

"This underscores our commitment to growing basketball in the region and to bringing more regular-season basketball to our fans in the UK."

The Magic first visited London for a pair of pre-season games in 1993.

The Raptors played back-to-back games in 2011 in London, the NBA's first regular-season games to be held in Europe.
