Brooklyn, N.Y. — The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team will tip momentarily from the Barclays Center. After a New York Nets and Boston Celtics game this afternoon, the crew here was late in setting up the court, so expect a slight delay. The Orange didn’t take the floor until 6:38 p.m. ET.
As for the game itself, Syracuse will tip against Penn State, which also lost its first game of the NIT Tip-Off. The Nittany Lions opened as a 2-point favorite with the over/under set at 135. The game will air on ESPN2.
