The Wolves will try again to play a game in Mexico City next season as one of two international games on the NBA's 2014-15 schedule. The Wolves are booked to face Houston on November 12 at Mexico City Arena.

Last season, a scheduled game between the Wolves and San Antonio was called off when smoked filled the arena after a fire started away from the court.

That game ended up being played at Target Center.

Mlwaukee will play Brooklyn on January 15 in London.
