The 2008 Portsmouth Invitational Tournament, the NCAA seniors-only tournament, will be held from April 9th-12th in Portsmouth, Virginia. Complete team rosters are listed below. Check out the official website of PIT, where you can find more info as well as the daily box scores
Some of the biggest names on the official PIT rosters include the likes of Darnell Jackson, Sasha Kaun, James Mays, Kentrell Gransberry, Jamar Butler, Sonny Weems, Chris Lofton, Richard Roby, Pat Calathes, Joe Crawford, Derrick Low and DeMarcus Nelson.
This years field is notably missing a number of seniors who arent currently projected to be drafted, but for one reason or another decided to stay at home and not be evaluated by NBA executives. They include Will Daniels, Malik Hairston, Steven Hill, Bryce Taylor, and Sean Singletary.
This years field looks very strong, but we should keep in mind that in years past there has been a tendency for some players to pull out of the tournament at the last moment, so it will be interesting to see how many of players listed below will actually arrive in Portsmouth on Wednesday.
You can follow the tournament here on DraftExpress, as we'll have multiple staff members in attendance recapping the games all day long. Well be writing about individual player performances and conducting interviews with the players and others in attendance.
