One team has a player who ranks 16th on South Carolina’s career scoring list. That’s Team Toronto.
Another squad is billed as the “European Kentucky.” That’s Mega Bemax, which is based in Serbia.
San Lorenzo de Almagro, which is based in Argentina, won its league championship last season.
And the “home team,” the Bahamas National Team, has several players with Division I experience. That includes a player who has competed against Kentucky before.
That said, Bahamas Coach Mario Bowleg did not oversell the idea that Kentucky must play competitive basketball in its four exhibitions games here Wednesday through Sunday.
