The Virginia men’s basketball team held its annual Blue-White Scrimmage on Saturday evening at John Paul Jones Arena, giving UVA fans their first look at this year’s roster, which features five transfers and two true freshmen, who made their first appearances at JPJ in a Virginia uniform.
If you weren’t able to make it to JPJ on Saturday evening to watch the scrimmage in person, worry not. Virginia Cavaliers On SI has you covered with five minutes of video highlights from the scrimmage. Watch the highlights from the 2024 UVA men’s basketball Blue-White Scrimmage in the video below:
Virginia divided up its roster into two teams and played three periods of 10 minutes each, making some slight variations in the personnel on each team for each of the three periods. We won’t go through and list all of the players who were playing for the Blue and White teams in each period, but we will list the starting fives each team began each period with on the floor:
Period 1 Blue: Taine Murray, Ishan Sharma, Dai Dai Ames, Jacob Cofie, Anthony Robinson White: Jalen Warley, Isaac McKneely, TJ Power, Elijah Saunders, Blake Buchanan

Period 2 Blue: Christian Bliss, Jalen Warley, Andrew Rohde, TJ Power, Elijah Saunders White: Dai Dai Ames, Isaac McKneely, Ishan Sharma, Jacob Cofie, Blake Buchanan
Period 3 Blue: Jalen Warley, Isaac McKneely, Taine Murray, Elijah Saunders, Blake Buchanan White: Christian Bliss, Ishan Sharma, TJ Power, Jacob Cofie, Anthony Robinson
Period 1 ended with the White team defeating the Blue team 15-8. Period 2 was very closely contested with the Blue team prevailing over the White team 13-12. In the final period, the White team defeated the Blue team 16-9.
San Diego State transfer Elijah Saunders led all scorers with 12 points and he opened the scrimmage with a pair of early three-pointers. He also finished a breakaway opportunity with an athletic one-handed flush. Duke transfer TJ Power joined Saunders in double figures with 10 points, also hitting two three-pointers.
True freshman Ishan Sharma finished with nine points in his first appearance at John Paul Jones Arena, while one of the most experienced veterans of the roster, Taine Murray, also had eight points and hit two three-pointers. Isaac McKneely and Kansas State transfer Dai Dai Ames had seven points apiece.

Before the men’s basketball portion of the Blue-White Scrimmages began, there was a joint three-point shooting contest between the Virginia men’s and women’s basketball teams. Isaac McKneely and Olivia McGhee teamed up to take on Christian Bliss and Kymora Johnson. Bliss knocked down 18/25 threes to give his team an early lead, as Olivia McGhee hit 14/25 on her turn. Kymora Johnson converted 15/25 threes to try to protect her team’s lead, but Isaac McKneely was not to be denied, hitting 22/25 three-point attempts to win the contest. McKneely and McGhee hit 36 threes, while Johnson and Bliss made 33 threes.

It’s almost game time Hokies fans! Virginia Tech is finally back in action and they are hoping to get their first ACC win of the year today when they face the Stanford Cardinal. Stanford is rolling with a new quarterback today, with ESPN’s Pete Thamel reporting earlier this afternoon that the Cardinal are going with Justin Lamson today. Stanford lost to Clemson last week, but don’t let the final score fool you. The Cardinal were able to run the ball effectively on a stout Tigers defense and that is going to be one of the big keys today for Virginia Tech.
Virginia Tech has been a favorite all week and with kickoff nearly an hour away, the Hokies are 9.5 point favorites according to Fanduel Sportsbook. The total for this game is set at 48.5.
Three of the four quarterbacks that Stanford has played this year have thrown for at least 255 yards. The Cardinals rank 112th in the country in dropback success rate allowed and this could lead to a big game from quarterback Kyron Drones. Drones has not thrown for more than 200 yards this year aside from the opening game vs Vanderbilt, but the Cardinal defense could provide opportunities for Drones to have his best game of the year. While the stats won’t blow you away, there were glimpses last week of Drones having success through the air. He is a dangerous runner, but his arm might be on display this weekend.
Kickoff is less than an hour away! Be sure to stay locked in right here and refresh the page for updates from today’s game.
For Hokies in need of assistance and others looking for ways to get involved, Virginia Tech has gathered resources and is coordinating cleanup efforts, according to a university news release.
VT Engage: The Center for Leadership and Service Learning at Virginia Tech has a webpage with information and links for efforts as well as ways to connect with groups supporting the greater Appalachia region.
Students, faculty, and staff can also participate in Giles County Cleanup Days, organized through VT Engage. A trip from the Blacksburg campus is scheduled for Oct. 10. Spots are limited; sign up at signupgenius.com/go/70A0948ACA62EA4FD0-51890548-giles#.
