Penny Hardaway talks Hoops for St. Jude, staff challenges at reception
“It’s gonna mean more money for St. Jude,” Memphis Tigers head coach Penny Hardaway said about the Hoops for St. Jude Tip Off Classic. “It’s (already) a big game for our city and for fans to be able to come and see. And if we can grow that past an exhibition, it’s great.” (Patrick Lantrip/The Daily Memphian file)
Hardaway spoke to reporters Thursday at the National Civil Rights Museum during a cocktail reception for Saturday’s annual Penny Hardaway Memphis District Golf Classic.
