Four men’s and four women’s games alternated throughout the day on Saturday, August 13, at the Chi-League. Team Bobby Simmons member Javonte Green of the Chicago Bulls (23 points, 16 rebounds, and four blocks) and Adrienne Godbold of Ties N Gang were standout performances (25 points, nine rebounds, five assists.)
