Champions Classic among “primary priorities” to be played in Orlando bubble

Will Kentucky basketball participate in the first official bubble of the college basketball season? It’s a possibility.

According to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports, Orlando is prioritizing four signature events for college basketball bubbles, including the Champions Classic.

“While Orlando has emerged as a bubble location for many early season tournaments in college basketball, four signature events – Champions Classic, Jimmy V Classic, ACC/Big Ten Challenge, and SEC/Big 12 Challenge – have emerged as primary priorities above others,” Rothstein wrote on Twitter.
