CHICAGO, Ill. -Â Justine Pissott, a University of Tennessee women's basketball signee, has been chosen to play in the 2022 Jordan Brand Classic.
Now in its 21st year, the Jordan Brand Classic will host elite level female and male high school senior basketball players as they take the big stage in the same city where Michael Jordan cemented his legacy as one of the greatest players of all time. The event has been canceled each of the last two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but it will return in full force on Friday, April 15, at Chicago's Hope Academy. The girls' game will lead the way with a 5 p.m. Central tip-off, followed by the boys' game at 7.
