A high-profile tournament in Phoenix featuring all four Arizona and Arizona State basketball teams? It’s an opportunity to get more eyes on basketball in the Grand Canyon State, and it’s on the schedule this December according to Wednesday’s announcement by Position Sports and the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame. The Wildcats men’s and women’s teams will join the Sun Devils men’s and women’s teams in facing off against national competition in Jerry Colangelo’s Hall of Fame Series.
Reports in March indicated that the Arizona men’s team would play Alabama in Phoenix this year, but the details weren’t known then.
