I love shooting basketball and every year we work with the Gazelle Group out of Princeton, NJ to cover a series of early season tournaments. The biggest of the tournaments in the 2K Sports Classic benefiting Coaches vs Cancer where the final games are held at Madison Square Garden in New York.
No. 24 Syracuse got 25 points and eight rebounds from Wesley Johnson and used a 20-3 run to start the second half en route to an 87-71 win over No. 4 North Carolina to claim the 15th annual 2K Sports Classic benefiting Coaches vs. Cancer.
Johnson, who was named the tournament’s Most Valuable Player, was joined by four teammates in double figures. Arinze Onuaku had 15 points and seven rebounds, Kris Joseph posted 12 points and seven boards, Andy Rautins added 11 points, seven rebounds and seven assists, and Brandon Triche scored 11 points.
