CBI
is the only event of its kind that allows student-athletes from less visible
conferences to display their basketball skills for pro scouts and NBA general
managers. Cal State L.A. was fortunate to have a student-athlete invited to the
inaugural event and he came back with rave reviews about his experience with
CBI."

"I
was pleasantly surprised by what a first-rate event the CBI was.
John McCarthy and the community of Wadsworth opened their arms to these young athletes and they responded with showcasing some terrific talent that is abundant at the Division II, III and NAIA
level."

"The
talent level and the character of the players, combined
with the effort and intensity displayed on the court,
provided a unique playing and viewing experience
throughout the event. The players were not only
willing to be coached, but wanted to win and were
willing to put forth the effort each game. This
was a great first year to what will be an outstanding
annual event for the players and programs from Division
II, III and the NAIA."
