La Familia, the Kentucky Wildcats alumni squad, went into game two against The Ville at this year's TBT (The Basketball Tournament) looking to sweep the best-of-three series and move on to play for the $2 million prize. They came out of the game with a lot of questions after an 82-62 loss where the Kentucky alumni squad struggled to get their former players on the court.
Willie Cauley-Stein was suffering from an injury, but tried to give it a go. However, a couple of names expected to play, Archie Goodwin and Marcus Lee, didn't make it, leaving them short-handed. That helped The Ville to a blowout win on Monday night.
After the game, Aaron Harrison, former Wildcats great, took to X to voice his disapproval with how things played out.
Goodwin took exception and answered back, saying "The fact that yall assuming I just left the guys hanging without even knowing my situation is crazy. Stop always thinking of yourself. I got more to my life than just basketball!" Things have since calmed down and Goodwin is expected to play in Wednesday's deciding game. Getting him back is a big deal, as he led the team in scoring last year.
Game three will be played at 6:00 P.M. in Lexington. It should be an intense game, with a lot on the line between two rivals.
