The U.S. Virgin Islands Paradise Jam is an NCAA college basketball tournament that takes place annually in late November.

Kansas and Florida State are the defending women's champions in the Island and Reef divisions, respectively.

[1] The format of the women's tournament has changed multiple times throughout the existence of Paradise Jam.

The 2017 men's and women's tournaments were moved to the U.S. mainland due to heavy damage caused by Hurricanes Irma and Maria.

[24][25] The substitute venue for the 2017 men's tournament was Vines Center at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia.

[26] The 2017 women's tournament took place in two different venues, with the Reef division playing at the Charles E. Smith Center on the campus of George Washington University in Washington, D.C., and the Island division at the neutral Titan Field House at Eastern Florida State College in Melbourne, Florida, presumably after no school in the Island division submitted a bid.
