Get your popcorn ready.
With a jam-packed summer season filled with star-studded AAU tournaments, circuits and showcases coming to a close, the main event is finally here. For the high school basketball season, no stage is brighter than the one illuminated by the lights of Rucker Park, where Volume 7 of the SLAM Summer Classic Presented by NBA 2K26 will take place August 18th.
After last year’s showdown spotlighted MVP performances from Autumn Fleary and Jordyn Jackson and a powerful self-alley oop from Jacob Wilkins, Vol. 7’s rosters are ready to cause a stir. Twenty-eight of the top-ranked hoopers in the country are ready to etch their names into the rich history of the world’s most famous streetball court, alongside the legends who played before them.
As with the years’ prior, those who can’t make it to Rucker Park can catch the seventh annual SLAM Summer Classic via live stream on the free-to-download NBA App. For those looking to attend the showcase in person, Rucker Park’s doors will open at 4:00 p.m. EST. The girls’ game tips off at 5:00 p.m. EST, featuring No. 5-ranked Jerzy Robinson, No. 3-ranked Olivia Vukosa and No. 16-ranked Olivia Jones.
