Huskies headed to Italy for four-game, 11-day foreign tour

The wait is nearly over for Isaiah Stewart, Jaden McDaniels and the legion of Washington men’s basketball fans anxious to see the most ballyhooed pairing of Husky freshman stars.

Three months after joining forces last May, the five-star prospects will make their collegiate debuts more than 5,000 miles away from Seattle.

With three months remaining before November’s regular-season opener, the unveiling of UW’s newest dynamic duo is a trial run considering they’re playing four exhibitions during an 11-day foreign tour that begins with games on Thursday and Friday morning in Rome, Italy.

Each contest is being streamed online via FloHoops.
