Georgia basketball to play in 2025 Charleston Classic, per report

The Georgia Bulldogs are set to play in the 2025 Charleston Classic, per a report by Jon Rothstein.

The Charleston Classic is an annual college basketball tournament that is held at TD Arena in Charleston, S.C. Last season, the event was played on Nov. 21 through Nov. 24.

Georgia is expected to play in the tournament along with the Clemson Tigers, West Virginia Mountaineers, and Xavier Musketeers. The tournament previously consisted of an eight-team field, but will only include four this season, per Rothstein.

The tournament adds to a non-conference schedule that currently includes a home contest against the in-state rival Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. No other non-conference contests for the Bulldogs have been reported yet for the 2025-26 season.
