Nebraska Basketball Live

Fans will have their first chance to meet the 2015-16 Nebraska men’s and women’s basketball teams on Thursday, Oct. 29, during Nebraska Basketball Live.

The free event, which takes place at Pinnacle Bank Arena, has events for basketball fans of all ages. Doors open at 5:30 p.m., and Nebraska Basketball Live features a chance to watch the Huskers practice, as men’s coach Tim Miles and his program will practice from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.

While the practice is going on, kids can show off their Halloween costumes and trick or treat in the concourse with Husker student-athletes and the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, while the Husker women’s team will be on the North Concourse signing autographs and passing out season posters.

The program begins shortly after 6:30 p.m. with the introductions of both programs, skill contests involving men’s and women’s players as well as fans. The event will culminate with a 3-point contest between players from both teams and selected fans.

The Husker men’s team will close the event with an autograph session from 7:30 to 8 p.m.  Fans will be able to pick up the new 2015-16 team posters for the first time at the event.
