Incoming freshman Omari Spellman has been practicing for the last few days among an elite group of high school basketball players, and tonight that group will take the court in the annual Jordan Brand Classic game at the Barclays Center.
After being deemed ineligible for the McDonald's All-American game, this will be Spellman's only chance to show what he can do to a national audience among the nation's best players. Playing on the West team, Spellman will match up against Bam Adebayo (Kentucky), Udoka Azubuike (Kansas) and Tony Bradley (North Carolina) in what may be a preview of some matchups we could see next season.
