Quade Green out, Archie Goodwin delayed as La Familia chases big names ahead of TBT opener
Key Points:
- La Familia faces a shortage of players ahead of their first game against The Ville in The Basketball Tournament, with Quade Green withdrawing due to personal reasons and Reid Travis out with a back injury.
- Archie Goodwin will miss the first game because of a scheduling conflict but is expected to play in subsequent games on Monday and possibly Wednesday.
- The team currently has only eight players available for Game One, four of whom are former Kentucky players, but TBT rules require seven alumni on the roster, so La Familia needs to add at least three more former Cats.
- Potential additions include AJ Stewart, Doron Lamb, and Marcus Lee, with the team actively pursuing more big names to join before Saturday’s game at Memorial Coliseum.
- The best-of-three series will continue at Freedom Hall on Monday and potentially return to Memorial Coliseum on Wednesday, July 22, if a third game is needed.
