Overseas Elite 3-Peats at TBT

In the most memorable championship game of The Basketball Tournament yet, the heavily-favored Overseas Elite defeated this year’s Cinderella team, Team Challenge ALS, to win their third straight TBT crown and the $2 million prize. Team Challenge ALS had a shot to tie the game, but Kevinn Pinkney missed a tough three as time expired. Kyle Fogg led Overseas Elite with a game-high 29 points en route to his second consecutive MVP award.

With the win, Overseas Elite has now banked $5 million from just three summers of competition, and will be eager to defend their title next year.
