With Chinese basketball player Yi Jianlian leaving the Milwaukee Bucks for the New Jersey Nets this season, this will be the first time that the NBA China Games are held without a local player. The first game will be held Oct. 15 in Guangzhou at the 13,000-capacity Guangzhou Gymnasium, making it the first-ever NBA game to be played in Guangzhou.
