Wasatch Front, Team Fredette make the cut for The Basketball Tournament

Two basketball teams comprised of former players from Utah have qualified for The Basketball Tournament, after voting ended Thursday.

The tournament, or TBT, begins play with the TBT Jamboree, a play-in tournament for the teams that qualify on Saturday, June 17 and Sunday, June 18, with 64 teams vying for a shot at $2 million in a 5-on-5 basketball tournament.

Two teams with heavy Utah connections, Team Fredette and the Wasatch Front, have qualified for the tournament's West region based on fan voting.

Let's take a look at the top 9 in each region. These teams will, pending review, be accepted to play in #TBT2017!
