BOULDER — Back for a fifth straight shot at the $2 million prize, members of Team Colorado are conducting a "mini-camp" in Boulder this week ahead of their Friday opener in the The Basketball Tournament, the winner-take-all affair that features 64 teams from around the country.
Team Colorado, consisting of CU alums, will open play Friday in the Wichita Regional in a 7 p.m. game (ESPN3) against Purple & Black, a team of Kansas State alums.
This year's Colorado squad is a blend of veterans — a handful of players have been on all five Team Colorado squads — and newcomers, including head coach Nate Tomlinson and general manager Josh Repine, as well as former CU players Tory Miller-Stewart, Dominique Collier and Xavier Johnson.
