Awesome.
The Hoops Report first broke the story over the weekend about the game that will take place on September 25th at the Palestra between Philly Stars and a team led by Carmelo Anthony. “The Chosen League” will be in charge of the event, which will include the following players on Hakim Warrick’s Philly team: Warrick, Markieff Morris, Marcus Morris, Kyle Lowry, John Salmons, Wayne Ellington, Jason Thompson, Flip Murrary, Aaron Owens and Sixer Lou Williams.
Melo’s team will include: Josh Selby, Donte Greene, Gary Neal and Eric Bledsoe.
I’m sure there will be some real strong team defense played. Plus side: Kyle Lowry is one of the most fun players to watch in the league.
Tickets go on sale next Tuesday, according to “The Chosen League.” You probably won’t have to lineup at 10 AM. Just a hunch.
