🔼 Prep Work! The staffers had already been informed, so their shock had faded, but the announcement that Mike Curtis was leaving his alma mater for the NBA’s Memphis Grizzlies floored the players on the University of Virginia men’s basketball team.

The Hoos are well-prepared to replace Curtis with Luke Toburen, whom UVA head coach Ryan Odom hired last month to succeed Curtis as director of sports performance. Toburen is a former Virginia graduate assistant (2020-22) who worked at JPJ with Curtis during that period.
