The Acrisure Classic is a four-team NCAA Division I college basketball showcase event. Three games are played at campus sites in the days leading up to Thanksgiving, and the event culminates with a nationally televised game on Thanksgiving Day. The inaugural event took place in 2023. Following the games at campus sites, the final game was played at Acrisure Arena in Thousand Palms, California.[1]
The field will expand to 16 teams in 2024, featuring 12 men's and four women's teams, which would play two five-day tournaments and a total of 18 games during Thanksgiving week.[2]
