The No. 9 seed Broad Street Brawlers fell 111-95 to No. 1 seed Team Colorado, which advanced to the final 16 of the winner-takes-all $2 million tournament. Colorado will play at 4 p.m. Saturday in Brooklyn, N.Y., against No. 4 seed Armored Athlete.

The Brawlers led for much of the first half but trailed 51-49 at halftime.

Oliver, Sanford and Pierre combined to score 60 points Saturday in a 108-95 overtime victory.

Happy to get on the court with my guys again. Let's get this money! #DaytonAlumn #TrueTeam
