10 of the most notable players competing in TBT 2024
DeJuan Blair, Zoo Crew (Pittsburgh Alumni)
Blair is one of the older players on this list but also likely one of the more recognizable. The 6-foot-7, 270-pound Blair made an impact at Pittsburgh from day one as he was the 2008 Big East co-Rookie of the Year. In his second and final season with the Panthers, Blair averaged an impressive 15.7 points and 12.3 rebounds, becoming the Big East co-Player of the Year while also being named a consensus first-team All-American. Blair carved out a nice role early in his NBA career with some successful San Antonio Spurs teams before going on to play for the Dallas Mavericks and the Washington Wizards. Blair is a previous TBT champion with Overseas Elite and will look to lead the Zoo Crew to that point in its second year, a team full of notable Pitt alumni including Jamel Artis and Lamar Patterson.
