42 Days to B1G Basketball: Big Ten Announces Players for Media Day

The Big Ten announced this week the 35 men’s basketball players that will attend the upcoming Big Ten Basketball Media Day next month. The event will take place the 19th at Madison Square Garden with the Big Ten (once again) trying to reach out to the New York market.

Of the 35 players set to participate in media day, 20 are seniors and 16 were returning All-Big Ten selections from last year.

Like mentioned above, the Big Ten has been trying to reach out to the New York market and expand the reach of the conference.
