The Tournament

Frak said:
I enjoyed watching you guys play! Great showing for your first year in it. Hopefully Garrett signs up again, because he was awesome. Question: What are the rules for G-League players? Are they off limits? And what about guys like Babb playing in Europe? Is that just a personal decision as to whether they want to put in the extra time? If I were you guys, I would be putting the full court press on Royce White, as he would flat out dominate in this setting. If you get him and Ejim, you are going to have a real shot at winning it.

Great questions! G-League players can definitely play, but not all of them. Most G-League contracts end at the end of the season, which means they are not under an NBA affiliated contract and can play with us. A player like Monte, however, would not be able to play with us because he is on a two-way contract that keeps him on an NBA contract throughout the off-season. Royce White was not incredibly interested this year, possibly due to it being the first year we put this together. Babb just signed a huge contract for a Russian team so for him to take the chance would've been a big risk. Ejim also signed a large contract and just got married so his summer was taken up (understandably!) This next summer our team will have some familiar faces and also some new ones we hope you will all be excited for!

Be sure to keep us posted!
 
Nice game by Kane. And with that win, my final chance at winning $1000 is done. The Syracuse team was my last of 4 teams that I had. Bummer. I will be back backing the Hilton Magic Legends next year along with 3 other teams. Here's to hoping the Legends win it all in 2018!

Kane played terrific defense. I also loved hearing Fran say the all American out of Iowa State multiple times during the game.

I also got a little chuckle when Fran commented how great Kane was on defense, and then mentioned that was something he never said while Kane was at ISU.

Worth noting that Craft spent most of the game on the bench since he picked up 5 fouls in the first 5 minutes. "Scrappy defender."

I used to grit my teeth when they would talk about how good he was as a defender...nice to see him parked for being so dang grabby...

I can't imagine the pressure in this game knowing if you lose then you go home with nothing.
 
19-0 and three championships for Overseas Elite in a single elimination setting. Almost unbelievable.
 
Thank you to everyone that supported us and Deandre throughout this summer. We are working on coming back next year and being part of the tournament all the way to the finals!
