Pit to host TBT basketball in 2022 — including NM-based team

Maybe a little home cookin’ and Pit magic will help the Enchantment.

The creators of The Basketball Tournament, more commonly known as TBT, want the Pit’s home-court advantage and passionate fan base to be a part of its annual summer $1 million, winner-take-all event that features 64 teams from around the country.

TBT on Wednesday unveiled eight regional sites for next summer’s event, and the Pit will host games July 18-21. There will be eight teams including The Enchantment, a mostly UNM Lobo alumni team run by Brandon Mason, a former New Mexico State player and Lobos assistant coach, and Ryan Berryman, a former Lobo basketball manager who is now UNM’s Associate Athletic Director for Business Operations.
