We interrupt – again – your relaxing summer for AfterShocks basketball at Charles Koch Arena.
While Shocker fans are used to cold winter nights at the Roundhouse, July basketball is now a habit with The Basketball Tournament. The AfterShocks, featuring former Shockers and other professionals, are three wins from the tournament’s $1 million prize.
Because TBT hosting privilege is determined by attendance, the AfterShocks will play at Koch Arena as long as they win. They play Heartfire at 8 p.m. Sunday on FS1 in a quarterfinal. The winner advances to the semifinal game on July 31. Heartfire, top-seeded in Kansas City Region, defeated JHX Hoops (Kansas alums) 71-68 on Wednesday at Municipal Auditorium.
