Senior college basketball players will have the opportunity to play for a $100,000 prize pool this spring in the first ever 3-on-3 College Hoops Invitational.
Intersport announced Tuesday morning that all-star teams from college basketball's top conferences will be able to compete in a three-on-three tournament spanning March 30 to April 1 in San Antonio.
Only seniors who have exhausted their eligibility will be allowed to participate.
This event features something for both sides of the debate on compensating student athletes: The tournament offers a potential financial reward, but it's only available to seniors in recognition of their longevity.
