A while back, I wrote about the rosters for the 2014 Under Armour Elite 24 Game. Among the participants are 2016 Pitt commit Mustapha Heron and 2015 target, five-star recruit Cheick Diallo. I mentioned this at the time, but thought it was worth a reminder.
The game is on this weekend and you can catch it on TV. In addition, there are some activities the night before, including a dunk contest, skills contest, and three-point shooting contest. An added dimension is that the game will be on an outdoor court.
Below are details for the weekend:

And, oh yeah, there's even a UA Next game featuring middle school players before the game on Saturday. If that kind of stuff is for you.
