On Monday afternoon, Best Virginia announced that former WVU guard Teyvon Myers will fill in the final roster spot for the TBT tournament coming up starting on Sunday. Myers played for West Virginia’s alumni team in 2021, helping contribute to a Sweet-16 appearance.

Myers replaces former Ohio State player Kaleb Wesson, who was expected to be on the team this year.

“Teyvon brings the juice on whatever team he is on,” Best Virginia head coach James Long said. “He is one of the most energetic guys I have been around. He’s definitely one of the most elite scorers that I have played with or been around.”
