This year’s Arizona men's basketball’s Red-Blue game has a new name as well as two familiar hosts.
The annual preseason event, now named the First Watch Red-Blue Showcase, will take place on Sept. 29 at 7:30 p.m. PT. The renaming of the event is meant to reflect that the event includes more than a scrimmage, according to The Daily Star’s Bruce Pascoe.
Arizona has officially renamed its Sept. 29 preseason men's basketball event the "Red Blue Showcase" to reflect the fact that that (long ago) it became a preseason splash with contests, intros, etc. The scrimmage within the "Showcase" will still be called the Red Blue Game.
