Coach Dan Hurley has announced that the University of Connecticut men’s basketball program will no longer schedule non-conference games against teams that include players from the NBA’s G League in their rosters. The decision reflects a growing trend among college programs to avoid matchups with players who have professional affiliations outside of the NCAA. Hurley cited concerns over competitive balance and the evolving landscape of college basketball recruitment. The policy could reshape how non-conference schedules are structured in the coming seasons.
