The Greensboro Swarm, the NBA G League affiliate of the Charlotte Hornets, today announced the schedule for the team’s upcoming season. The Swarm will tip off the 2017-18 campaign at home on Saturday, November 4 at the Greensboro Coliseum Complex Fieldhouse against the Canton Charge. The 50-game schedule consists of 24 home games, 24 away games and two games that will be played at the League’s 14th annual NBA G League Showcase in January.

“We are incredibly excited to announce our schedule for the upcoming season and tip off the Swarm’s second campaign in the NBA G League in front of our home crowd here in Greensboro,” said Swarm President, Steve Swetoha. “We continue to receive overwhelming fan support from the surrounding community and look forward to another great year both on and off the court here in the Triad.”

In addition to opening night, the Swarm’s schedule is highlighted by 16 other home games played on either a Friday, Saturday or Sunday. Marquee matinee games this year include an afternoon game the day after Thanksgiving and the day after Christmas.

Greensboro will welcome the Santa Cruz Warriors (the affiliate of the defending NBA Champion Golden State Warriors) to the Gate City for the first time in team history on Saturday, January 6. Other first time matchups for the Swarm this season include games against the Wisconsin Herd (Milwaukee Bucks), Memphis Hustle (Memphis Grizzlies) and Lakeland Magic (Orlando Magic), three of the newest additions to the NBA G League.

The Swarm will compete in the NBA G League’s Eastern Conference as a member of the Southeast Division, joining the Delaware 87ers (affiliate of the Philadelphia 76ers), Erie BayHawks (Atlanta Hawks), and Lakeland Magic (Orland Magic). Of its 50 games, 40 will be played against the 12 other teams in the Eastern Conference while eight games are against Western Conference opponents.
