The game will be played on Saturday April 7, 2007 at the FedEx Forum in Memphis at 3pm central time. USA Basketball fact sheet.
USA Team Roster. Of the ten players selected only one, highly coveted Patrick Patterson of WV has not committed yet to a college (and has found himself in the middle of the coaching carousel, but that's a different story).
NCAA Eligibility: Because it is a national/international team event, the Nike Hoop Summit does not count towards the two all-star game limit that incoming freshman have in order to retain their NCAA eligibility. (Even though it is an all-star game, but I digress).
Tickets seem to be reasonably priced. For those going ot the game, there will be a bonus regional all-star game at 1230pm central (the Memphis All-Star Classic)
TV: The game will air live on some regional FSNs and on Fox College Sports. Some regional FSNs will show it tape-delayed. It will be repeated at least half a dozen times on Fox College Sports. Check my previous posts for airtimes.
You can download the 64-page Media Guide (PDF files) for free from USA Basketball. It contains player profiles, rosters, historical information (previous rosters, scores, records, etc).
