Luqman Lundy’s sweet tune lifts Bradley to its first MVC tournament title in 31 years

ST. LOUIS — Several of renowned jazz musician Curtis Lundy’s top songs are in the five-to-eight minute range. For Lundy’s son, Bradley guard Luqman Lundy, it only took 4:20 on a nationally televised Sunday stage to create the one of the greatest sound tracks in BU basketball history.

Lundy, who had not yet taken a shot in the game, scored 11 points on 5-for-5 shooting during a second-half period from 14:59 to 10:39, to spark the Braves from an 18-point deficit to its first Missouri Valley Conference tournament championship in 31 years.

It was the greatest comeback in MVC tournament history.
