The Basketball Tournament bracket 2022: Updated scores, live results & more from every game image

The Basketball Tournament has returned for a ninth consecutive year.

The high-stakes tournament is set to make its return on July 16, giving 64 teams the chance at winning $1 million. Just like March Madness, the 64-team pool competes in a bracket-style, single-elimination tournament with action-packed hoops from tip-off until the game-winning shot.

The Basketball Tournament uses an Elam Ending — which the NBA adopted from TBT for its All-Star Game — to assure that every contest ends on a game-winning bucket.

Teams are packed with former NBA players and college stars, all competing to win $1 million in the winner-take-all tournament.

For live updates, highlights and more from each contest, The Sporting News has you covered below.
