Happ joins Team Hines, a squad led and put together by Euroleague legend Kyle Hines. This will be Happ’s first TBT appearance after not being able to play for the all-Wisconsin squad Kohl-Blooded last summer due to an injury.
Happ joins Vitto Brown, Kahlil Iverson, and Trevon Hughes, as the fourth former Badger in this years tournament. The other three Wisconsin alums participating are all on the Big Ten alumni squad Big X.
This year, TBT will take place over only ten days, and is scheduled to start on July 4. Tune in to see four former Badgers going at it for a massive grand prize.
