Tuesday Headlines: 2025 McDonald’s All-American Game

Tonight’s action begins at 6:30 PM ET.

Tonight is the annual McDonald’s All-American Game, featuring some of the best high school senior basketball players in the country. The 48th annual game will be played at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY.

Both the boy’s and girl’s games will be played tonight, starting with the girl’s game at 6:30 PM ET on ESPN2. Representing the East roster is Kentucky Wildcats commit Kaelyn Carroll from Tabor Academy in Massachusetts.

The boy’s game will be played afterwards with tip-off scheduled for 9 PM ET and also airing on ESPN2. Kentucky basketball has a representative on the boy’s team, too, in Malachi Moreno — the Kentucky native and recent KHSAA state tournament champion — playing for the East team.

Both rosters were constructed by a committee choosing from 700 nominees with the selections based on the athletes’ ranking in their class and their performance on the court but also their character off the court.

Come chat here during the game tonight!
