Future Kentucky teammates Isaiah Briscoe and Skal Labissiere are expected to join forces Saturday on Team Future in the 5th annual BallsIsLife.com All-American Game in Long Beach, Calif.

Briscoe, from Roselle (N.J.) Catholic, and Labissiere, from Lausanne Collegiate School in Memphis, both signed in the early signing period in November. Both players told USA TODAY High School Sports on Wednesday that they intend to be in Long Beach.

Team Elite is expected to be led by Brandon Ingram from Kinston, N.C., who committed to Duke this week, and Arizona signee Allonzo Trier from Findlay Prep (Henderson, Nev.). Trier will be joined by fellow Arizona signees Chance Comanche (Beverly Hills, Calif.) and Justin Simon (Temecula, Calif., by way of Brewster Academy in New Hampshire).

Thon Maker, a 7-footer from Orangeville in Ontario, is listed on the Team Elite roster. Maker remains uncommitted and has not officially reclassified to the Class of 2015.

The game will be preceded by a three-point contest and a dunk contest. The dunk contest should be worth watching, given performances this season in previous dunk contests by Donovan Mitchell (Louisville), Rex Pflueger (Notre Dame) and Derrick Jones (UNLV). Mitchell and Pflueger will play on Team Elite in the game and Jones on Team Future.

Past participants include Stanley Johnson, Cliff Alexander, Kelly Oubre, Zach Lavine, Roschon Prince, Glenn Robinson III, Jordan Adams, Nick Johnson, Jabari Brown, Jahii Carson among others.
