Jamel Artis advances in TBT with Sideline Cancer

Former Pitt standout Jamel Artis saw action in the second round of the 2020 edition of The Basketball Tournament with Sideline Cancer on Tuesday afternoon, helping the team to a 76-66 victory over Team Challenge ALS at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.

For the second game in a row, Artis was included in the starting lineup of the purple-clad team and saw more than 25 minutes of court time, as he logged 27 minutes after playing 26 in Sideline Cancer’s 93-91 win over Team Hines on Sunday afternoon.

In just under a half-hour, Artis contributed eight points on 2-of-5 shooting from three-point range and a 2-for-4 showing at the charity stripe.
