A Kansas-Missouri alumni basketball game for charity, entitled “Rivalry Renewed,” will be contested on Saturday, July 28 at Silverstein Eye Centers Arena in Independence, former Tigers player and game organizer Kareem Rush said Friday.
The game, set for a 7:30 p.m. tipoff, will benefit Rush’s “Rush Forward Foundation” and the Boys and Girls Club.
“The game is something we’ve been thinking about the last few years. I saw the success of the game between KU and Mizzou (sold-out Sprint Center for the Showdown for Relief on Oct. 22) and thought this was a good time to see if I could get some alumni of both schools to come back and play,” Rush said.
