Before the Magic travel across the pond for a pair of regular season games in Europe against the Grizzlies during Orlando ‘s 37th year of basketball, Jamahl Mosley ‘s squad will meet a familiar face on a Caribbean island for a preseason contest.

The Magic will face the Heat on Oct. 4 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, the clubs announced Tuesday afternoon at a news conference in South Florida.

While the matchup serves as the sixth exhibition for Miami in Puerto Rico, it’ll mark the first time the Magic will play there.
