The Basketball Tournament has officially crowned a new champion, with Aftershocks (Wichita State's alumni team) walking away with the $1 million winner-take-all prize on Sunday after defeating Eberlein Drive by double digits.
Here's a recap of Sunday night's TBT action!
Aftershocks 82, Eberlein Drive 67
Aftershocks was the first and last team to score on Sunday en route to winning the 2025 TBT title. It jumped out to a 12-point lead in the first quarter with ease, but Eberlein Drive fired back with a 12-0 run to knot things up at 18-all late in the frame. It was a one-point game, 21-20, heading into the second quarter, where Eberlein Drive took its first lead of the game. It was short-lived, however, as Aftershocks went on a 12-0 run of its own to get back in the driver's seat.
It was a back-and-forth battle to close out the first half. Aftershocks took a nine-point lead into the break, 46-37.
Eberlein Drive kept things close to start the second half but was never able to find a rhythm. It pulled within five points, 55-50, with roughly four minutes left in the third quarter but never truly threatened Aftershocks. Both teams combined for only 13 points in the fourth quarter before the Elam Ending — the tournament's alternate ending, in which the game clock is shut off in the fourth quarter and a target score is set. The first team to 82 would win it all.
After a hard-fought final frame, Marcus Keene sunk a free throw for Aftershocks to seal the win.

Keene's game-winner marked his seventh during an Elam Ending, passing Jamil Wilson (six) for the most in TBT history. Keene, who was named TBT 2025 MVP, led all players with 22 points on 50% shooting.
What's more, he left the door open for a potential return to the tournament next year if Aftershocks participate again.
Junathaen Watson led Eberlein Drive with 14 points.

He's won four PGA Tour tournaments in 2025, including The Open Championship in Northern Ireland last month. Second on the board and currently ranked No. 3 in the world is Xander Schauffele at +1600. While Scheffler won The Open a few weeks ago, Schauffele finished T-7 in that tournament. Rounding out the top three at +2200 is Justin Thomas, who is currently ranked in the top five in the FedEx Cup standings. Another golfer that bettors might want to keep their eyes on is red-hot Cameron Young at +4000, who's heading to TPC Southwind fresh off his very first PGA Tour win. On Aug. 3, the Wake Forest alumnus' six-stroke victory gave him the Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, North Carolina. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?

That's right, "The Joel Klatt Show" is going back out on the road. Join Joel Klatt and special guests in the heart of Ohio State's campus for a live edition of the show on Aug. 28, two days before the Buckeyes host Texas — two of the top teams in Klatt's newly released preseason rankings — to open the 2025 college football season. It's all going down at Browning Amphitheater, which will serve as the backdrop for the live show. Tickets are free, but space is limited, so RSVPs are required. The first 300 guests to RSVP are guaranteed two free drinks, food and other perks. The show will be hosted by Klatt and will have some surprise guest appearances, contests and prizes. "Buckeye fans have always been incredible to us at this program, so we wanted to come out there and bring our show to you," Klatt said Monday. This will be Klatt's second live show on the road. Last year, he traveled to Madison, Wisconsin, ahead of the Badgers' game against Alabama and hosted a show with guests including former NFL stars Melvin Gordon and Mark Ingram.
