TL;DR Summary

San Diego State's basketball team arrived in Houston to a VIP treatment, complete with a deejay playing music and cheers from workers. The team then faced the challenge of playing on a raised court at NRG Stadium, which is 27 inches above the ground and has no immediate backdrop behind the baskets. The NCAA added a Thursday practice to give teams three chances to adjust to the unique court. Aztecs forward Jaedon LeDee has an advantage as he grew up playing on outdoor courts. The Final Four has three new teams and only one blue blood, but San Diego State's Matt Bradley says everyone had a chance to participate and the teams that made it did so "fair and square."
