The University of Missouri’s men’s basketball team will remain a part of the Tire Pros Puerto Rico Tip-off, starting on Thursday, November 17th, however, concerns made by the teams involved have led to the decision to move the eight-team event from San Juan to Orlando.
ESPN’s Wide World of Sports Complex, located at the Walt Disney World Resort, will host this year’s event, consisting of 12 games over three days, with each team competing in one game per day. The two unbeaten teams remaining in the field, on Sunday, November 20th, will compete in the championship game.
The field of eight will remain the same, with Missouri joined by Arizona State, Clemson, Davidson, Northern Iowa, Oklahoma, Tulane, and Xavier. Missouri’s three games in Orlando will be played on November 17th, 18th, and 20th.
