The Wooden Legacy Tournament, in some form or another, has been around since 1994. For those that don’t know, it is an annual basketball tournament held in California (this year in Orange County) over Thanksgiving weekend. The precise dates this year will be November 24-27, with no game played on the 26th. Each team is guaranteed to compete in three games.
You might recall that Boise State represented the Mountain West Conference last year and took home fourth place honors. This year New Mexico will try its best to bring the tournament championship back to Albuquerque.
Standing in their way will be a formidable UCLA team that is currently ranked 16th in the nation.
