This is part of NBA Europe Live Tour, which is now in its sixth year. NBA teams travel to the continent of Europe to play a series of preseason games against the Euroleagues top talent.

Dirk told Euroleage.net, “This is like a dream come true. To play in front of a home crowd with my friends and family present and to be able to showcase my country to my teammates will be an unforgettable experience. I look forward to a great atmosphere in Berlin.”
