When the third annual HBCU All-Star Game tips off at the end of this season, the best players from the nation's historically black colleges and universities will put their skills on national display in the showcase opportunity in a game televised on CBS. But the journey to the game is already underway, and the first few weeks of the season have provided a chance for players to make their case for selection.
The 2023-24 HBCU All-Stars Watch List features players from across the country who have separated themselves from the pack to receive consideration to be among the final players who make the cut. The game will be held at Grand Canyon University as the college basketball world descends on the Phoenix area for the Final Four at the end of this season. Tip is set for April 7 at GCU Arena on the campus of Grand Canyon University.
Players from the MEAC and SWAC, Tennessee State, North Carolina A&T and Hampton of Division I are eligible. Players from the CIAA and SIAC of Division II will also be invited to the game, which is one part of a larger set of HBCU All-Star Game festivities. Other events include HBCU All-Star Game Experience, a week-long festival as well as HBCU college admissions fair, a pro day, awards ceremony and and a social justice and civil rights panel discussion.
