The 23rd annual Jordan Brand Classic is scheduled to take place tonight at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
Both the UNC Basketball program and the UNC Women's Basketball program will be in attendance at the event, giving Tar Heel fans a glimpse of two of the brightest talents set to appear in Chapel Hill this summer.
Blanca Thomas, a 6-foot-5 center, will represent the UNC women's basketball program as part of the team flight. The women's game for this event is scheduled to tip off at 4:00 PM ET.
On the men's side, five-star player Drake Powell will compete for Team Air Jordan. He will team up with two future Duke Blue Devils in Cooper Flagg and Darren Harris. The men's game is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. ET.
If you want to be the first to see both fighters compete, the event will be streamed live. Both games will also be featured on the NBA app and the NBA YouTube channel.
Both Thomas and Powell are highly regarded prospects who are expected to make an immediate impact from the moment they step on campus in the near future. These future Tar Heels will once again have the opportunity to compete against the best talent this country has to offer within their graduating high school classes.
