The big event UK fans will have their eyes on this weekend is the annual Nike Hoop Summit, which will be the first time many see Wenyen Gabriel in action.
Gabriel, as you may recall, was not eligible for the McDonald's All-American Game where UK signees De'Aaron Fox, Bam Adebayo, Malik Monk and Sacha Killeya-Jones played because he was a fifth-year high school senior.
So after getting to see that bunch last week, UK fans will now get to see Gabriel in action as he teams up with Fox and team USA to face the World Team, which include UK target DeAndre Ayton.
