SALT LAKE CITY — Brace yourselves, Utah sports fans.
The Jimmer is coming back for some basketball in the Beehive State — and the former BYU star is bringing a team with some very familiar faces on the bench with him.
Team Fredette, which will be coached by former BYU head coach Dave Rose, will host the Salt Lake City regional of The Basketball Tournament. The first three rounds of the annual $2 million winner-takes-all hoops extravaganza will take place from July 25-27 at the Maverik Center.
Winners of the eight regionals will convene in Chicago for Championship Weekend, with the quarterfinals, semifinals and championship taking place from Aug.
