PHOENIX, Ariz.-Day three of the 2018 Nike Tournament of Champions saw semifinal action move into the spotlight. All seven divisions of play set up their Saturday championship match ups before the final horn sounded this evening. The “main” floor at the Powerhouse Hoops “Phhacility” hosted the John Anderson, Joe Smith and the high profile Clare Droesch bracket final fours after being the exclusive domain of the Droesch Division over the course of both days one and two.

Below you can see banners of those six games featuring final scores and images of players from each semifinal team. The size of the event limits our ability see all the action in person but the last banner includes the scores of both semifinal games in the four remaining divisions.
