By the power invested in Marcus Hall, the Buffs alumni will play in the final game of The Basketball Tournament. Team Colorado pulled out a 78-70 victory over Always A Brave, a squad made up mostly of members the Bradley Braves’ 2006 Sweet Sixteen team. The Buffs alumni will play City of Gods or Overseas Elite for the $2,000,000 grand prize on Tuesday, August 2. The championship will be aired on ESPN at 5 p.m. (MST).
Per usual, Team Colorado allowed the opposition to settle into a nice run to start the game. After spotting them seven points to start the game, Marcus Hall and Calvin Williams inspired a run that saw Colorado tie the game, take the lead and go up 20-12 before Bradley had a counter run of their own.
