There will be tough competition, last year's tourney champ Gruber Law is back and looks to be the team to beat as they feature Myles McKay (Switzerland) and former Louisville star Jerry Smith (Italy).
Here is a quick look at the teams for this year's Pro-Am, clicking on the team name will take you to their entire roster.
BAIRD - Team BAIRD looks to be one of the most exciting teams in the league. With the 2013 college MVP Drew Windler and MSOE MVP Austin Stueck Baird has a solid foundation. Add in current and former UWM stars Akeem Springs and Kyle Kelm and Baird looks pretty tough!
BrewCityBall - This team has been in the title hunt every year of the Pro-Am and two time MVP
Dujante Wade is back as is Green Bay's
Carrington Love. Add in Washington's Quevyn Winters, Glenn Bruce and Wisconsin's Mr. Basketball in 2008 Demarcus Phillips and BrewCityBall will be tough to beat.
Gruber Law - Where do we start with this one? Can you say Euro Pros? The 2013 Pro MVP
Myles McKay (Switzerland) teams up with the 2013 College MVP
Drew Windler (Belmont). Add in former Louisville star
Jerry Smith (Italy) and former UWM star
Ricky Franklin (Portugal) and you have a team with their sights set on the title. Not physical enough? Nick Polk. Don't know who he is? Look it up.
IWB Sports Apparel - Do not overlook this team. While the only name you may recognize if former Badger Kevin Gullikson, this team plays as a team, something that can not be overlooked. They have more size than anyone in the league and will play to the wire in every game.
Scion Dental - Some of the best players to come out of Milwaukee over the years, this team is loaded, Former UWM players Anthony Hill and Mitch Carter will take up more than enough space in the paint. Add in Chim Kadima, Draelon Burns and Fred Durr and you are looking at 100 pts per game.
Wilson's Warriors - Wilson's Warriors feature Diante Garrett who has spent a few years in the NBA. Last year's Pro-MVP, Garrett will be joined by his right hand man and Euro Pro Bryquis Perine. Those two were a dynamic duo last season and now team up with Ben Hailey and Zarkis Jordan to form a solid nucleus.
It will be another summer of non-stop high flying action at MSOE, and remember,
