One of our friends recommended that we try out going to a local NBA G league game. The Greensboro Swarm have Marcus Paige on their team who is a former UNC player. One night they were going to play another team who has Justin Jackson on their roster, another former UNC player and also Finley's favorite player from our Championship season last year.
When we found out that JJ was coming to town, we couldn't resist! Here he is making a dunk during warm ups.
The Swarm play in a really small venue, so all of the seats are up close!
Of course it just happened to snow the night of the game, but that didn't stop us from heading out (in our new all wheel drive vehicle) to catch the game.
Finley was cheering for JJ's team the Reno Big Horns, David was cheering for the home team, and I was pretty indifferent.
Both UNC players represented well and Marcus Paige in particular was on fire and had a career high of 32 points! Overall, I still prefer the environment and drive of watching college basketball, but it was still a fun night! Go Swarm!

We went to a game over Christmas break. I loved it! Such a fun, small venue. Def missing the hype of a college game, though.
