Orange Bowl Basketball Classic canceled for 2020
The Orange Bowl Basketball Classic, the annual doubleheader traditionally played in late December at BB&T Center, will not be played in 2020, the Orange Bowl announced Tuesday morning.
“The safety of the student-athletes, patrons, staff and arena personnel is most important, and while we are disappointed that the event will not take place this year, we are looking forward to the 27th Orange Bowl Basketball Classic in 2021,” Orange Bowl Committee president and chair Jeff E. Rubin said in a statement.
