Santa Clarita residents will get a chance to see the Harlem Globetrotters when the team returns to the Los Angeles area to show off their basketball talent.

The Harlem Globetrotters are scheduled to bring their tour to the Los Angeles area in February, according to a Harlem Globetrotters news release.

The Globetrotters are planning on blending basketball with entertainment in a signature style they have refined over several decades.

“The team’s upcoming performance will showcase the high-flying, fun, and memory-making moments that the Globetrotters are known for,” officials said. “The dribbling, the dunking and the shooting – don’t forget, they led all of basketball in 4-point shots made in 2017 – will all be on full display during the 2018 tour.”
