This year's Puerto Rico Tipoff will move to Orlando, Florida, due to concerns about Zika virus on the island.

In a news release posted Monday on the tournament website, ESPN Events senior vice president Pete Derzis said the concern for the welfare of participants and spectators was ``the primary driver'' in the decision. Derzis said the plan is to return to Puerto Rico in the future.

ESPN Events, a division of the sports network, owns and operates the tournament.

The eight-team tournament will move from Coliseo Roberto Clemente in San Juan to the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. It will keep its original Nov. 17-20 schedule, as well as the field of Xavier, Oklahoma, Arizona State, Clemson, Davidson, Missouri, Northern Iowa and Tulane.

Miami won the event last November.
