The 3rd Annual South Orange County Roundball Extravaganza will be held tomorrow,  Saturday, June 24, 2000, and it will feature 6 games in all, including one of the best lineups of the top talent in SoCal from among the incoming freshmen, to top developing class of 2003 rising sophs, the class of 2002 rising juniors), and the best and brightest from the class of 2001, the rising seniors, many of whom by this time next year will have signed with some of the top D-I programs, and there's at least one legitimate NBA prospect, in Compton Dominguez' Tyson Chandler (who was, surprisingly, a no show at the USA Basketball's 2000 Youth Development Festival this past week). 

While the event takes place in "South Orange County," it still will be a showcase for more than just Orange County, featuring  top players from all over Southern California who will be playing in the six games to be held at Santa Margarita HS.  Last year's event featured some of the most promising and talented basketball players from all over SoCal, including some of the "big name" guys like Tyson Chandler, Jamal Sampson, Cedric Bozeman, Josh Childress, and many others, and this year the list is even more impressive, with 120 top players in all, including many of the guys from last year's games and many new faces.

Here are the rosters for the Boys' Games, starting in reverse order, with the 8:00 p.m. Game # 6, the top game of the day:
