With the NBL25 pre-season officially tipping off recently, it won't be long until the new-look Sydney Kings start their quest towards a sixth championship.

Before Brian Goorjian's side officially tip-off their 2024-25 campaign at the first-ever Hoopsfest in Perth on Sunday, September 22 against Adelaide, Kings fans will get the chance to witness their revamped outfit in person.

The Hoops Capital club is excited to announce they will be hosting a pre-season fixture against the New Zealand Breakers on Friday, August 30 at Sydney Olympic Park's Quaycentre.
