Two former Indiana basketball players saw their run in The Basketball Tournament end with their loss on Sunday.

Following a huge upset win against the No. 2 seed AfterShocks on their home floor, Team Sideline Cancer’s run in The Basketball Tournament came to an end despite more good play from two former Indiana basketball players.

On Sunday afternoon, Sideline Cancer left it all on the floor but came up just a bit short in their 88-80 loss to the Golden Eagles, made up of former Marquette basketball alumni. Remy Abell paced SLC with 16 points, six rebounds, and three assists while Mo Creek added 13 points, six rebounds, and five assists.

Making it to the Round of 16 for the second straight year, they fell just short of a trip to Chicago for the quarterfinal matchups. In their three games, Creek led SLC with 19.3 points per game on 53.7 percent shooting from deep. He also added 4.7 rebounds per game. Abell, who had a terrific performance helping lead SLC over the AfterShocks, averaged 16.0 points per game on 55.6 percent shooting from three.

For Creek, he will now turn his attention to his season with Kyiv-Basket of the Ukrainian Basketball SuperLeague where he averaged a team-high 16.4 points per game last season. Abell  put up 11.6 points per game a season ago and his team Oroszlany, out of Hungary, will move up to Division A.

Despite the loss, it was great to see the former pair of Indiana teammates back on the court together for the first time in six years.
