Former Maryland basketball stars John Gilchrist, James Gist and D.J. Strawberry are reuniting this weekend to play in a newly formed professional basketball league showcase game.

The Basketball Alumni Legends League (The-BALL) will hold a showcase game in Washington, D.C. on Aug. 4 at 4 p.m. from the Charles E. Smith Center on the campus of George Washington University. The game will be broadcast live on Comcast SportsNet regional networks along the east coast.

 

It’s east to understand why John Wall went #1 in the NBA draft. But I have said it over and over –how in the world did the next 3 teams pass on Kentucky’s Cousins. Last night, DeMarcus went for 22 points and 12 rebounds including the game winning  jumper.

James Gist had 10 points and 5 bounds for the Spurs last night. Landon Milbourne was only in the game for 2 minutes for Atlanta.
