Self Made's Elijah Johnson dribbles the ball during The Basketball Tournament's first round game against Sideline Cancer on Thursday inside Charles Koch Arena.
WICHITA– Charles Koch Arena came to life Thursday evening for the first round of The Basketball Tournament. The first game of the night presented a match-up with Kansas’s alumni team, and No. 3 seeded Self Made, against the No. 6 seeded Sideline Cancer.
The Roundhouse was electric from the start of lineup introductions. Wichita native Perry Ellis got the start for the KU alumni, and fans, those dressed both in red and blue or yellow, gave the former Jayhawk a standing ovation.
