The 2007 Roundball Classic

The 2007 Roundball classic, a work of the Godfather of summer hoops (Sonny Vaccaro), will take place on Tuesday April 3rd 2007 (day after the NCAA final). It usually airs on CSTV. I do not know yet whether CSTV plans to air it live or tape-delayed.

  • West rosters
  • East rosters

    HOWEVER this includes some swing players, as they are also included in the McDonalds All American game and the Jordan Classic. As you may recall, NCAA regulations prohibit a player from participating in more than two all-star games if they want to retain their eligibility. McDonalds is the most high profile of those games (on ESPN baby!) so players chose to either go to Jordan or Roundball, but not both (unless they plan to turn pro).

    List of swing players
  • OJ Mayo
  • Kevin Love
  • I do not know if they made any official announcements as to which game they'll actually play in

    The Nike Hoops Summit does not count as an all-star game because it is a USA Basketball event, although it is really an all-star game. So the best players of each class usually go to the McDonalds game, the Nike Hoop Summit and either the Jordan or the Roundball classic.

    I will have a more detailed break down of the all-star games and recruiting in general after the March Madness madness cools off...
