Lobo alumni ready to play in The Pit again

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.- The Lobo alumni will take the floor this weekend.

Kenny Thomas will serve as the team’s head coach.

The team will feature J.R. Giddens, Drew Gordon and Tim Williams.

"It’s a great opportunity to represent New Mexico, and we love basketball here, so I think it’s going to be good for everybody," Giddens said.

After Sunday’s exhibition game, the real tournament will begin in Wichita, Kansas on July 16.
