House of ‘Paign adds former DePaul star Billy Garrett

Just eight days before tipping off in Columbus, House of ‘Paign is still making additions.

According to a tweet from the Illinois alumni team Friday morning, former DePaul star Billy Garrett is joining the roster.

Garrett, who went to Morgan Park for high school, played for the Blue Demons from 2013-17, coinciding with the time of most of the guys on ‘Paign. The 25-year-old has bounced around in Europe for the past year after playing for a short stretch with the New York Knicks.

The Basketball Tournament gets going next Saturday on July 4. House of ‘Paign plays the tournament’s third game against Auburn alumni War Tampa.
