Oklahoma men’s and women’s basketball teams will be participating members of the Jumpman Invitational as announced by the Charlotte Sports Foundation Thursday.
NORMAN – Oklahoma's men's and women's basketball teams will be participating members of the 2022 Jumpman Invitational, as announced by the Charlotte Sports Foundation Thursday.
The inaugural event, which is scheduled for Dec. 20-21, 2022, will feature both the men's and women's teams from the original four schools to sign partnership deals with Jordan Brand in both basketball and football. The other schools participating are Florida, Michigan and North Carolina.
The partnership with the Charlotte Sports Foundation and the Jordan Brand to host the Jumpman Invitational is for three years. The event will be hosted at Charlotte's Spectrum Center in partnership with Hornets Sports & Entertainment, which owns the NBA's Charlotte Hornets and operates the facility.
OU Vice President and Athletics Director Joe Castiglione was instrumental in the formation of the Jumpman Invitational, along with Danny Morrison, executive director of the Charlotte Sports Foundation.
"I've got to thank Oklahoma Athletics Director Joe Castiglione for being the first to suggest getting the original four Jordan Brand schools together for an event," said Morrison. "And our board of directors is especially pleased to highlight both men's and women's college basketball in this way while offering the same amazing experience for all the players, coaches and fans."
The schedule will feature two games each night, with matchups and game times still to be determined. ESPN networks will air all four games, with ESPN Events working in conjunction with CSF to maximize the event's success in front of a global audience.
More information surrounding the event in 2022 and the unique experiences being created for fans, players and coaches will be announced once details are finalized in the coming months.
