ULCA-Thunder--Last
Pre-Game Notes--(November 19, 1997)
Ok, alright already, enough about this game. Since none of the local papers have covered this game--the L.A. Times didn't even have it listed in it's page two calendar of events for November 19-- maybe UCLA has decided to call off it's game against the NBC Thunder.
But if they haven't, and you're still planning on attending, here are the rosters so you'll know who's who.

Again, in case you missed it, NBC Thunder is comprised of former collegiate basketball players, many of whom played in the Pacific Northwest. NBC Thunder is an offshoot of the Northwest Basketball Camp, which has been hosting camps for youth throughout the Western United States and into Canada for the past 26 years. This year's NBC Thunder exhibition schedule includes 13 games, including 12 leading up to tonight's game against UCLA. The team has been in seven states, and has traveled from Washington state to Rhode Island to Washington, to LA. NBC Thunder is now 8-4, with wins over Boise State (69-66), URI (83-59) Eastern Washington (83-61), Kansas State (85-73), Southern Illinois (79-67), Illinois (86-83) and Missouri Baptist. The losses are to Washington State (72-77), Bradley (57-67), Eastern Illinois (84-70) and St. Louis (54-69).
