SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) – Professional basketball hopefuls from all over America came to Springfield this weekend to capture the attention of The 413 Elite, a new team recruiting for the American Basketball Association.
The 413 Elite hosted these would-be stars of tomorrow at the Springfield Boys & Girls Club gym on Carew Street.
“These guys are showcasing what they can do on the court. We are checking every aspect, every element of the game,” said Charles Evans, Owner of The 413 Elite.
Recruiters kept their eyes wide open for signs that these young people possessed the qualities that would make them assets for the team. The 413 Elite’s inaugural season begins October 29 at the Basketball Hall of Fame.
