Zlatan Ibrahimovic was at the NBA's presentation to potential investors on Monday over a proposed European NBA league

London hosted its 10th regular-season NBA match on Sunday as the Memphis Grizzlies beat the Orlando Magic 126-109, but there was a different feel to the occasion than in previous games in the city.

Three days on from the Magic's win over the Grizzlies in Berlin's first regular-season NBA match, the Grizzlies' victory concluded a European double-header that brought much excitement around the sport and its potential room for European growth.

In 2027 Paris and Manchester will host a double-header - the latter also getting its first NBA in-season match - while in 2028 Berlin and Paris will take another game each.

All four cities are among those being touted by the NBA as part of its long-term plans for an independent European league that could launch within two years.
