Local 4 laces up for charity basketball game

Local 4 and Fox 2 square off in charity basketball game

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. – While the basketball world waits for the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors to hurry up and meet in the NBA Finals, there’s a much bigger basketball game happening locally.

It’s the annual charity basketball showdown between Local 4 and Fox 2. Your favorite on-air and off-air personalities square off in a friendly, but competitive hoops game. Currently, the trophy resides in Southfield with Fox 2, but Local 4 is hoping to relocate it to Downtown Detroit.
