BREAKING: March Madness descends on Brooklyn
Barclays Center to host prestigious ACC Tournament in 2017-18

The Barclays Center and the newly reconfigured Atlantic Coast Conference announced Wednesday morning that the state-of-the-art arena on the corners of Atlantic and Flatbush Avenues would host the ACC Tournament in both 2017 and 2018.
