Game 2: Porter 7-8-9 (1) vs Best of the Best (2)

With Kittles and Porter on both teams, we’re left with two great matchups. A pair of Wright Era guards in Brunson vs Lowry, and a pair of old school bigs in Arizin vs Pinckney. Brunson and Arizin are craftier with better shots, but Lowry and Pinckney are more athletic with bigger builds. Who wins? You decide!
