La Familia’s first-ever run in The Basketball Tournament didn’t end how we all wanted, but it was undoubtedly a fun ride along the way. The group of former Wildcats came up short in the semifinals against Carmen’s Crew, losing 76-70 on Friday night in Philadelphia.
Regardless of the outcome, La Familia’s run was one for the books. Three straight wins in Rupp Arena followed by the biggest game in TBT history (a win over Louisville’s alumni team, The Ville, in Freedom Hall) won’t be forgotten anytime soon. The expectation is the Kentucky alums will run it back again next summer. We’re already looking forward to it, as well.
To put a bow on what has been a series of surprisingly entertaining July basketball, we had to Rapidly React to what went down in Philly. Watch below as Drew Franklin, Mario Maitland, and I give our thoughts on the end of La Familia’s time in TBT.
