Play begins Tuesday. Admission is free. So is abundant parking, with golf cart shuttles from the Ross-Ade lot.
Congrats Freshman Team: Tournament Champs !! 🏆 🏅
Junior Varsity falls short in the semi-finals but finishes with 10-2 record for the week. Great work fellas!
Big thanks to Coach Hall for taking time to speak with our team today. Coach Hall’s teams totaled 300+ wins, 6 Sectional Titles, and he was selected to coach the Indiana All-Star team in 2018. #HallBall
Brad Stevens said at Butler his roster construction philosophy was to find 4 players that if they transferred everyone would want to take them, and then surround them with elite role players.
In that context, seems like for USA Basketball they are primarily relying on these 4 for on-ball initiation: LeBron, KD, Steph, and Ant (2nd unit)
Holiday and White already have experience in this elite role player role. Booker, especially today, looked way more comfortable sliding into a 3&D Klay-type role. Bam and AD feel comfortable knowing how to play on and off the ball in their roles.
Embiid on the other hand has really struggled with this team, having to play differently based on his role/style of play compared to being on the Sixers, and the FIBA rules. Tatum in the exhibitions, and maybe evident from the DNP-CD today, also seemed to be struggling in the off-ball type of role that Booker has embraced. Will be interesting to see how he handles the Olympics if this is the status quo going forward, and how Kerr handles him as well.
