Doron Lamb, Marquis Teague, and Reid Travis will not participate in The Basketball Tournament (TBT) for La Familia due to unforeseen professional commitments. Lamb is with Italy’s UEB Gesteco Cividale, Teague is playing in the BIG3, and Travis is competing for Japan’s Levanga Hokkaido. Their absence is a disappointment, but La Familia remains confident and supportive, wishing them all the best.
Stepping in, Brennan Canada and Kerem Kanter join La Familia’s roster, bringing fresh talent and enthusiasm. Canada announced his participation early Thursday, expressing excitement and readiness to contribute. Kanter, inspired by his brother Enes, who was ruled ineligible in the past, looks forward to honoring his family and delighting fans, expressing pride and determination.
With the final team set, La Familia is gearing up for their TBT debut, promising a strong performance despite the roster changes. The enthusiasm from the new additions has the team optimistic, aiming to make Kentucky fans proud as they prepare for the tournament ahead.
