The Baha Mar Championship is a relative newcomer to the lineup of college basketball tournaments around Thanksgiving but continues to draw a strong field to Nassau every year.
Top-ranked Purdue leads the four-team event in 2025, with the Boilermakers set to take on Memphis in the opener of the two-day event. No. 18 Texas Tech follows against Wake Forest.
The field features a pair of players on the AllSportsPeople preseason All-America first team: Purdue point guard Braden Smith and Texas Tech forward JT Toppin. Those two alone are worth tuning in to watch, but there will be plenty more talent on the floor in Nassau.
Here's everything you need to know to watch the 2025 Baha Mar Championship.
