Briante Weber joins Ram Nation TBT team for Super 16

It's official: Briante Weber will make his debut with team Ram Nation next week as our group of VCU alums travel to Atlanta for the Super 16, competing for a $2 million prize in <a href="https://www.thetournament.com/">The Basketball Tournament</a>. Weber will no doubt bring his competitive energy and defensive prowess to a roster that is already stacked with offensive ability.

Weber is currently a free agent, coming off of two stints in the 2017-2018 NBA season with the Houston Rockets (13 games played), and the Memphis Grizzlies (5 games played). The Grizzlies did not extend Weber's contract, making him a free agent and thus eligible to play with our Ram Nation TBT team.

Ram Nation competed in front of several thousand fans at the Siegel Center this past weekend, winning two games to advanced to the Super 16, a round of 16 remaining teams competing for the $2 million prize.
