Brooklyn fans should get a chance to see Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving play together as members of the Nets midway through December.

The NBA announced its preseason schedule for the 2020-21 season, and the Brooklyn Nets are only slated to play a pair of games before the regular season kicks off.

Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving’s first chance to take the floor together as members of the Brooklyn Nets comes on Sunday, December 13 at 6 p.m. against the Washington Wizards, two days after the preseason kicks off league-wide.

Five days after the Nets host the Wizards, they are scheduled to take a trip to Boston to play against the Celtics, Irving’s old team, on Friday, December 18 a 7:30 p.m.

The Nets also announced both of their preseason games will be broadcast on YES Network. The team also disclosed the following:

“Barclays Center will be following New York State guidelines to determine when fans can return to games. Current guidelines do not permit fans.”
