For the last several summers, The Basketball Tournament gathers a bunch of former college basketball stars, plays some competitive basketball games, and gives us all a needed break from offseason shenanigans and baseball. Former student manager Kevin Belbey has been the General Manager of a Syracuse Orange team, named Boeheim’s Army, for the last 7 seasons, as fans have watched the ‘Cuse alumni team become a focal point of the tournament.
Coming off a disappointing, yet heavily COVID impacted 2020 tournament, the 2021 tournament is back, and along with it, a new roster for BA. Three former first round picks under 26 are joining the team, with Belbey giving the recruitment credit to Adam Weitsman, Boeheim’s Army’s Chairman of Business Operations.
