Kyle Fogg named MVP in Overseas Elite’s three-peat in The Basketball Tournament

It’s Fogg’s second consecutive MVP award

For the third straight year, Kyle Fogg has won The Basketball Tournament.

The former Arizona Wildcats guard led Overseas Elite to a 86-83 win over Team Challenge in the title game Thursday.

Fogg poured in 29 points and made two game-sealing free throws, earning his second consecutive MVP award.

As champions, Overseas Elite earns a $2 million prize, which will be divided up evenly among the team’s players. Fogg will get $147,000 and said Overseas Elite will donate a portion of the winnings support ALS research.

In total, Overseas Elite has earned $5 million in the last three summers.

In 2015, Fogg used his earnings from the tournament to help buy his mother a house. In 2016, he used his earnings to help furnish that house.

Earlier this summer, Fogg signed a $2 million contract with China’s Guangzhou Long-Lions in June.

He has not played a single minute in the NBA, but clearly has had a remarkable professional career nonetheless.
