The Fort Wayne Mad Ants, the developmental league affiliate of the Indiana Pacers, will hold their annual open tryouts a few months before the 2017-18 season.
The Mad Ants, of the rebranded G-League, have scheduled open tryouts for Saturday, September 23rd from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm at the Plassman Athletic Center at Turnstone.
The cost to try out is $150 per player, if registered by September 20th. Then, the non-refundable cost goes up to $200.
Registration on the day of tryouts opens at 9:00 am, and all participants will receive a Mad Ants tryout jersey. The goal for players is to earn a coveted roster spot to training camp in November.
Friends, family, and other spectators are invited to watch at no cost.
Steve Gansey will begin his third season as Mad Ants head coach. His older brother, Mike, was promoted to assistant general manager for the Cleveland Cavaliers this month.
