Michigan basketball teams to face other Jordan Brand schools in Jumpman Invitational

The Wolverines will head to North Carolina in 2022 for a new marquee event — the Jumpman Invitational.

The Charlotte Sports Foundation and Jordan Brand announced a three-year agreement Thursday to host a showcase that will feature the men’s and women’s basketball programs at Michigan, Florida, North Carolina and Oklahoma, who were the first four schools to sign partnership deals with Jordan Brand in basketball and football.

The inaugural Jumpman Invitational will be held in Charlotte on Dec. 20-21, 2022. All games will be played at Spectrum Center, the home of the NBA’s Charlotte Hornets — who are owned by Michael Jordan.
