Louisville basketball played their first organized public scrimmage on Sunday in front of an anticipatory KFC Yum! Center crowd. With the bright lights on, Louisville’s captains along with their budding star, Jordan Nwora, opened a lot of eyes.
This game had an awesome feel to it, as far as meaningless scrimmages go. The arena had an atmosphere that was similar to that of a normal game. Once fans had finally filed to their seats, the attendance was likely in the area of 8-10,000. Even though it was a ticketed event, Cards fans showed up and showed out.
As far as the game itself, there were quite a few players who showed a lot of promise.
