Hoop fans in China are in for a treat as the NBA Global Games have come to town again.

With the 2013-14 regular season still weeks away, NBA diehards in China will get the chance to devour a luxury appetizer ahead of schedule as two high-profile teams, the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors, will square off in two games at the MasterCard Center in Beijing on Tuesday and at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai on Friday.

The games will conclude the NBA's eight-match global preseason series, which began on Oct 5 with Oklahoma City Thunder beating host Fenerbahce Ulker, 95-82, in Istanbul, Turkey.
