The games against the Lakers and Pelicans will be played at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas and Kentucky's Rupp Arena respectively. The Kings-Lakers game in Vegas is an annual tradition, and has led to such magical moments as this:

Meanwhile, the final preseason game will be a University of Kentucky reunion tour as the game will feature Wildcats alumni Anthony Davis, DeMarcus Cousins, Rajon Rondo, and recent Kings draft pick Willie Cauley-Stein.

Kings basketball will be back in just over two months! I can't wait.
