October 14th’s Complete Sports Schedule: Where, When, and How to Watch Your Favorite Sport’s Event

This Wednesday, several NBA preseason games will take place, featuring teams such as the Miami Heat, Boston Celtics, and Denver Nuggets. Meanwhile, reports suggest that the Nuggets have already started trimming their roster, as all franchises must make roster cuts ahead of the regular season. So, who will the Nuggets waive?

According to Michael Scotto’s report for HoopsHype, Lonnie Walker is expected to be among those let go. What makes the news even tougher is that the Nuggets signed him just a month ago. However, there could be more difficult decisions ahead, as the team reportedly needs to waive five more players to meet the roster limit.

The Nuggets will also be in action on Wednesday. Meanwhile, the day’s schedule includes a National League Championship Series game. With that in mind, let’s take a look at Wednesday’s broadcast schedule.
