All month we’re squaring off the best user-submitted teams in a giant 128 team 3 on 3 tournament. Voting closes every night at midnight, so be sure to check back every day to vote for your favorite teams and see who comes away as the 2018 Summer Tournament Champion!

Round One is officially in the books as Glue Guy Champs, Positionless Basketball, TKO, and Wild-Coots all advanced. Heading into the second round Kerry Kittles remains the player on the most teams, now on nearly 60% of the 64 teams left. Jalen Brunson is second in that category at 45%. Defending champs from last year’s tournament, Ryan Arcidiacono and Daniel Ochefu, are each now on just four remaining teams.

The Second Round technically kicked off yesterday, with Team GOAT, Wing U, My Four, The Best, Shoot ‘Em Up, and MVPs all advancing. We’ve got ten more matchups today, so let’s dive right in.
