Express, Lightning to play in Chatham-Kent

The Windsor Express and London Lightning will hit the road next month, but not for your typical pre-season game.

On December 14, the two National Basketball League Canada teams will play each other in Chatham-Kent.

The game will be held at the St. Clair College Healthplex with tip-off set for 7 p.m.

Doors open at 6 p.m. with entertainment for the fans.

"We're looking forward to kicking off our #BOUNCEBACK season with this pre-season game in Chatham," said Dartis Willis, president and CEO of the Express.

Chatham marks the halfway point between London and Windsor, so fans of both franchises have less distance to travel.

Tickets are $10.
