The dream is over for Team uKnighted, as they suffered a 74-71 loss on Saturday night to the Silver Spring Willow Runners in the opening round game of the Jamboree. The Willow Runners move on to today’s contest against the Champions, led by longtime NBA player Earl Boykins, with the winner advancing to The Basketball Tournament in July. As for Team uKnighted, they will have to wait for next year to put together another run.
Give credit to Team uKnighted for never giving up and almost pulling off an epic upset. Shooting woes plagued them in the first half, when as a team they made just 8 of 31 shots for only 25.
