The 2017 Paradise Jam Tournament is a set of upcoming men's and women's preseason college basketball tournament that will take place at locations to be determined within the contiguous United States. The tournaments are normally held at Saint Thomas, Virgin Islands at the Sports and Fitness Center on the campus of the University of the Virgin Islands. However, due to major damage to the Virgin Islands from Hurricanes Irma and Maria, the events will be moved to the U.S. mainland. Tournament organizers solicited hosting bids from all schools in the men's and women's tournaments, with each tournament to be awarded to one of its participating schools. The substitute host for the men's tournament was announced on September 29 as Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, with Vines Center as the venue.
The men's tournament will be played November 17–20, 2017 with the women's tournament to be held November 23–25.
The women's tournament will be played from November 23–25. The women's tournament consists of 8 teams split into two 4-team, round-robin divisions: Island and Reef.
