Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart are now stars for the New York Knicks, but were once members of Villanova’s national championship teams. Brunson won two titles and Hart won one with the program.
This live event will be open to the public and will serve as the unofficial kickoff to the men’s and women’s basketball seasons. Both teams will be introduced before the start of the podcast, with fans being able to partake in on-court activities like a three-point contest and a dunk contest. Head coaches Denise Dillon and Kevin Willard are also both expected to be interviewed by the former Wildcats.
