The list of PIT alumni includes NBA legends Rick Barry, Earl 'The Pearl' Monroe, Dave Cowens, John Stockton and Scottie Pippen. Past Shockers at the PIT include Shaquille Morris (2018), Darius Carter (2015), Carl Hall (2013), Garrett Stutz (2012) and Paul Miller (2006).

Portsmouth Partnership's eight-man rosters includes a pair of 2018-19 WSU foes: Lipscomb's Garrison Mathews and Oklahoma's Jamuni McNeace.
 
The 6-foot-8 McDuffie was a second team all-conference selection in his final season as a Shocker and became just the 13^th player in program history to finish with more than 1,500 career points. McDuffie averaged 18.2 points this year and led the Shockers to the NIT semifinals in New York for only the second time in 13 appearances.
 
A total of 64 players were chosen to compete. McDuffie is one of five from the American Athletic Conference, along with Jalen Adams (UConn), Shizz Alston Jr. (Temple), DaQuan Jeffries (Tulsa) and Jeremiah Martin (Memphis).
