California brothers win Utah Jazz 3-on-3 Tournament, earn tryout with the Salt Lake City Stars

Their sister thought they could take a road trip and make some memories.

“She said it would be a cool brother trip, a summertime adventure,” Josh Hurst said. “So we were like, let’s go!”

That’s how the Hurst brothers of Brea, California decided to hop in a car and drive from Orange County to Salt Lake City for a 3-on-3 basketball tournament. The four brothers arrived in Utah on Sunday and, by the following night, three of them were standing in front of the J-Note statue outside of Vivint Smart Home Arena, posing with their championship plaques—while the fourth member of their team lay in a hospital bed.
