The Arizona State Sun Devils men’s basketball team released its full 2017-18 schedule on Tuesday morning.
The Sun Devils play an intriguing non-conference schedule that includes the Continental Tire Las Vegas Invitational with games against Xavier who entered the 2017 NCAA Tournament as an 11 seed and beat the 2-seed Arizona Wildcats in the Sweet Sixteen and then fell to Gonzaga (1-seed) in the Elite Eight, and George Washington, who finished 20-15 last season — good for fifth in the Atlantic 10. The Hoop Halls classic features a contest against St. John’s in the Staples Center.
