"NBA basketball, or at least something that resembles it featuring at least four of the most noteworthy names in the league, will return to New Orleans on Dec. 3 at UNO's Lakefront Arena when Hornets guard Chris Paul hosts an event featuring some of his best friends.

Dubbed the "Google+ Homecoming Tour" by CAA, the sports marketing agency that represents Paul and several of the league's highest-profile players, Paul will be joined by Miami's Dwyane Wade and LeBron James and the Knicks' Carmelo Anthony in the exhibition that will tip off at noon on the lakefront.

Proceeds from the four-city tour — games are also scheduled for Chicago; Akron, Ohio; and East Rutherford, N.J., areas that are meaningful to the NBA quartet — will benefit Paul's CP3 Foundation, which does charitable outreach for youth in the New Orleans area."
