There will be some experimentation at tonight's Mike Conley Jr. All-Star Classic.
The all-star basketball boys game will feature several junior college and prep school players along with a variety of high school seniors.
The games -- which pit players from Arkansas high schools and other players with ties to the University of Arkansas against players from the Memphis area -- will be played at Cirks Arena at Little Rock Hall High School.
"We've always had that option [of using junior college players] available to us, but we never have used it," said event organizer Bill Ingram, who uses the All-Star Classic as a kickoff to this weekend's Real Deal.
