Hoops for the holidays? The University of Hawai’i basketball team will be playing games on Thanksgiving and Christmas days in 2015.
The Warriors were officially announced as one of eight teams in the 2015 field for the Continental Tire Las Vegas Invitational, which will include games on Thanksgiving Day. The other seven teams in the field are Bethune-Cookman, Cal, Liberty, Richmond, Sam Houston State, San Diego State and West Virginia.
