Less than a week after Boston College withdrew from the 2024 Naismith Hall of Fame Basketball Showcase, Florida State has taken their place in the three-team round-robin tournament.

The Hall of Fame announced Wednesday afternoon that Florida State will join UMass and Temple in the east-coast event at Mohegan Sun in late November.

Although the tip-off times are yet to be determined, the event schedule is finalized, marking UMass’s first Power 6 non-conference opponent. On Friday, November 22, the Minutemen will watch the Seminoles face the Owls in the tournament’s opening game. UMass will then play Temple on Saturday and face Florida State on Sunday.
