Prior to this year’s TBT (The Basketball Tournament), one team, in particular, had Auburn basketball fans excited. Team Tampa 20/20 featured four (later three) former Auburn players on the roster which led to the team rebranding as team War Tampa prior to the tournament.
Unfortunately, the team that featured Bryce Brown, DeSean Murray and Horace Spencer fell hard in their first-round matchup against House of ‘Paign, a team of Illinois basketball alumni.
Most teams vying for the $1 million prize of TBT are comprised of alumni from a certain school but if team War Tampa (or whatever they could be called in 2021) want to compete next year, they should look into bringing in more former Auburn basketball players.
