The finals of the Storm Classic at 3:45. I assume they will be in it, but the online bracket hasn't updated.
Winston and Bridges didn't have to work hard in the game they were playing, so they didn't. I was talking with a dad with a kid on the 7th grade version of The Family (Winston has a little bro on there too. Chubby little dude, who was cracking us up because they were on the 17u bench going crazy).
When Winston did try for about 5 minutes, he had the ball on a string, no fear whatsoever that the defender could get the ball, and made a few finishes look really easy. His build is not athletic, but to be honest, PG is not a position I'd want UM to have a one and done type. Again though, they were rolling this team, so the first ten minutes we watched he just stood in the corner and let the other guards do stuff.
Didn't know Bridges was Bridges until I got home. He had two absolute monster dunks in the half court. Wanted to take guys off the dribble for fun, and we assumed he was a power forward just goofing around with the ball. Didn't realize he was so highly ranked, because he didn't look like he was considering having a jumper. After pulling up YouTube, it confirms he was screwing around. He clearly is not afraid to shoot. Super athletic and strong build.
16u Mustangs are playing at 3:45 against 1Nation. Hoping that Xavier Tillman, Austin Davis, Foster L, or others are playing. Josh Jacksonplays for 1Nation but the article written before the tourney was unsure if he was playing this weekend.
Greenwood Elite may be the Team playing the Family. Greenwood is Saginaw based.
We'll see who is there when I head back.
Would post updates if people care.
