Louisville men’s basketball will get a boost in creating team chemistry this summer with a foreign trip to the Bahamas. The program announced the news on Friday.

From the official UofL release:

UofL men’s basketball head coach Pat Kelsey announced Friday that the program will play two games as a part of a foreign exhibition tour in the Bahamas later this summer.

“I’m excited for our team to participate in the Baha Mar Hoops Summer League in just a few weeks,” said Kelsey.

“We’ve brought so many new pieces to our program and the practice and playing time this trip will allow us is invaluable to our team.

It will be a vital time for us on the court, but it will also give us plenty of opportunities to gel off the court as well.

I hope by taking this trip, we have a real advantage when it comes time to start practicing in the fall.”

Louisville will play against international competition as part of the 2024 Baha Mar Hoops Summer League managed by veteran sports marketing firm bdG Sports.

The Cardinals will arrive Sunday, July 28 at the Baha Mar Convention, Arts & Entertainment Center onsite at the Baha Mar resort in Nassau, Bahamas.

UofL will play two games before returning home to the United States on Friday, August 2.

The international opponents for the two games have yet to be determined.
