During the third quarter of the Rip City Remix’s first win of the G League season Sunday afternoon, a group of kids sprinted down a back hallway at the University of Portland’s Chiles Center. The group of about eight or so ranged from pre-K to elementary school. They wore a mix of Remix and Portland Trail Blazers red and black, and they were going fast.
“Slow down! We’re walking, we’re walking!” a security guard stationed in the hallway called to the bunch as they ran past.
Less than a minute later, two more kids sprinted down that same hallway.
