PALM SPRINGS, Calif. โ The University of Washington will participate in the second annual Acrisure Invitational during Thanksgiving week in Palm Springs, Calif., as announced on Monday.ย

"We are excited to have creatively scheduled four full days of high quality men's and women's college basketball at Acrisure Arena," said co-Tournament Director Dan Shell. "We are very grateful to our partners at Acrisure and Visit Greater Palm Springs who made this event possible, and for TNT Sports for jumping into this with us for the years to come to take this event to the next level.
