DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Dalton Banks' college basketball career could have been over with Illinois State's quarterfinal loss to Belmont on March 7 in the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament.
"You have no idea what's going to happen next," Banks said. "You've got all the emotions, all the feelings running through you thinking about our career and thinking about your time here at Illinois State."
Banks' time as a Redbird received an extension when ISU accepted a bid to the College Basketball Invitational at Ocean Center. The Redbirds face Presbyterian at 4:30 p.m. Sunday in a first-round game of the 11-team, single elimination event.
