Best Virginia made their TBT debut on Friday with a 79-63 win over the Seven City Royalty to advance to today’s second round matchup with the four-time defending TBT champion Overseas Elite. The Elite made light work of the Hilltop Dawgs in the second match of Friday’s opening round, 104-76, derailing any hope that the former UMBC Terriers carried over any of that upset magic from the 2018 NCAA Tournament.
So what is The Basketball Tournament?
It’s the winner-take-all $2 million tournament comprised of 64 teams. They’re playing in 8 regionals across last weekend and this and will have an elite 8 next week in Chicago.
