Basketball Hall of Fame London Showcase

The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame has announced the field of teams for the first-ever Basketball Hall of Fame London Showcase, a newly developed college basketball double-header held in conjunction with The O2 arena on Sunday, December 6th 2020. The inaugural event will feature Marist College vs. University of Maryland, Baltimore County at 3:00 p.m. London time and University of Kentucky vs. University of Michigan at 6:00 p.m.

“The Basketball Hall of Fame is proud to celebrate the game on a global scale and we couldn’t be more excited to host four Division I men’s teams in London this December,” said John L. Doleva, President and CEO of the Basketball Hall of Fame.

“The O2 is a beautiful, world-class venue and we expect many US-based fans will make the trip to enjoy its amenities and support their teams abroad. We’re also looking forward to showcasing collegiate hoops to the local fans and growing the appreciation for basketball at all levels worldwide.”

The Basketball Hall of Fame London Showcase is one event in the Hall of Fame’s series of collegiate events, which continues to grow in an effort to celebrate the game outside the museum walls.

This event was rescheduled from 6th December 2020.
