U.S. all-stars, world players coming to the Rose Garden
The Nike Hoop Summit, a basketball game that pits 10 of the best U.S. high school seniors against their counterparts from around the world, is coming to Portland.
At a news conference Thursday, USA Basketball, Nike and the Portland Trail Blazers announced that the 11th edition of the game will be held at 1 p.m. April 12 at the Rose Garden.
Fans will have a chance to see some of the top rising talent — from the United States and abroad — before the players achieve greater fame. Seventy-four Nike Hoop Summit players have been drafted by NBA teams.
