‘Always show home love.’ Thornwell, Dozier return to SC, put on show at Pro-Am

“No way!” P.J. Dozier shouted with his eyes toward the top of the key. “No way!”

The seventh annual South Carolina Pro-Am basketball tournament began Sunday with a matchup of the two faces of USC’s 2017 Final Four run. Except Dozier and Sindarius Thornwell were opponents this time.

It was midway through the first half when Dozier, sensing what his old teammate had in mind, moved his defensive position from the wing to the baseline. Thornwell is a sleek 6-foot-5, 215-pounder with 73 games of NBA experience under his belt. Keyshawn Bryant is an incoming Carolina freshman with necessary trips to the weight room in his future.
