In the constantly changing university sports climate, basketball appeared primarily a traditional group in the post -season in the NCAA, NIT and two other events. But with the fact that the name, image and proverb (nothing) dollars is a top priority for the programs, the American Professional League draft is competitive as it was ever, and the schedule diminishes when the last four tone week was, there was an open door for a new event to pump more resources and interest in sports during the largest time in the year.
For this reason I launched Fox Sports and AEG Total basketball crownA new addition to the posteason college Hops scene, which will include 15 games via FOX and FS1 starting on Monday in MGM Garden Arena and rolled on April 5 and 6 in the semi-finals and the title match of T-Mobile Arena. In partnership with Vivid seats, the hero event will give an opportunity to support $ 300,000. The runner -up will receive an opportunity to support $ 100,000, while the opportunity for $ 50,000 will go to the semi -finals.
In addition to support opportunities, 12 American Professional League organization has already committed to existence in the crown of the total basketball, and with a single central location in Las Vegas, it allows it to see the possibilities several times throughout the week. In an event that includes the likes of NCAA scorer and Villanova star Eric DixonJunior goalkeeper USC Desmond ClaudeAnd one of the best wings in the country in the Boise State Tyson Degenehart, the players will have the opportunity to show their games to the country and do so on the national broadcast in isolated windows.
Here is the list of the American Professional League teams committed to the presence of the crown:
- Milwokuki Paczz
- Brooklyn window
- Phenix Suns
- Golden State Warriors
- Dallas Maverx
- Indiana Basars
- Denver Nags
- Chicago Bulls
- Minnesota Timberwolvs
- New Orleans P it
- Houston Ructas
- Sacramento Kings
“This event is about the development of the game,” said Fox Sports Jords Bazant. “University basketball is a special sport and the crown will create a way for more people to leave.”
Lyon Rice, coach of the Boise State team, whose team was in the mixture of the NCAA championship with 24 to 10, but instead it was included in the first four goals, I am pleased to be part of the first year event.
“Being in the first, there is a really special thing about it,” Rice said. “The players must be compensated, and they are positives now. With the timing of the gate, this is an opportunity to play basketball. We have great places and teams, and this is a really first -class process. With the opportunity to actually win money, adds a level of excitement.
“I think this event has great value and escalation, and I expect to continue to grow after this first edition of the tournament.”
Not only is the event that changes the game for sport, but it will also look for ways to improve play by implementing some experimental changes to accelerate the end of the game’s scenarios, which is largely required to flow university basketball.
Instead of arbitrary officials go to the screen in any external calls in the last minutes of the game, any discussion call will require the coach to use a deadline to challenge the call. There is no limit to the challenges of the coaches, but if the team does not have a deadline and the challenge is lost, the accusation will be charged with an administrative technical error, which means that the opponent has been given two shots and will keep the basketball. If a team succeeds in the challenge, they maintain the time limit they are used to challenge the play.
“It is a good base and should help shorten the end of the games,” said Fox Spokesman. “All these automatic reviews will be eliminated outside the border and you should challenge the coach.”
In addition to dollars, nothing, the American League teams change and the experimental base changes, there are layers of stories surrounding players and coaches in this event as well.
Just take a look at the success of Bobby Hurley Arizona, the sun of demons Farid Huyberg Nebraska Cornehoskar At 8:30 pm Eastern time on FS1. These two main coaches have been a difficult season, but for these teams, it now starts from 2025 to 26 years.
Look at Chris Holtuman, Eric Musillman and USC, two young men who were in that long ago, but they took up this year and are now trying to put bricks for the year 2.
