The family-friendly event will begin with open run tryouts at Helen Bernstein High School at 11 a.m., and 10 players will be selected to go head-to-head with the undefeated Ball Up all-stars, where a basketball legend will serve as a guest coach.  The live basketball game will take place at Nokia Plaza at 6p.m. MVP’s at each tour stop chosen by the coaches and judges will have the chance to compete in the Las Vegas championship event in August.
