Badger fans still hungry for basketball after this weekend's madness at the Metrodome can head to the United Center in Chicago to watch Brian Butch play alongside Lebron James.

Brian Butch, fresh off his appearance in tonight's McDonald's All-American Game in Cleveland, will participate in another all-star affair Monday night at the United Center in Chicago.

Butch, arguably UW's most highly-touted recruit in program history, has been named an EA Sports All-American and will join LeBron James as a member of the East team in the EA Sports Roundball Classic Monday night at 7 p.m.

The EA Sports Roundball Classic is the oldest and one of the most prestigious high school All-American games in the country and a game that's helped launch the careers of Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O'Neal, Tracy McGrady, Kevin Garnett, Vince Carter and many more of the game's biggest stars.

Tickets for the game are available at the arena, and the game will be broadcasted live on the internet. For information regarding the event, check out www.originalroundballclassic.com.
