2021 PAYCOM WOODEN LEGACY TOURNAMENT

WELCOME

HELLO FANS!Welcome to the 2021 Paycom Wooden Legacy.

We know how much you love basketball. From opening tip of the season until the final buzzer of the Big Dance, ESPN Events is proud to host this annual basketball tournament in Anaheim, as teams battle for a chance to call themselves champions.

Upsets, traditions, buzzer beaters and Cinderella stories… We live and breathe for this game. We know, no game is over until the clock strikes zero, and even the smallest of players can become the biggest of legends.

This tournament would not be possible without our partners: Paycom, OC Sports Com-mission, OCV!be and Visit Anaheim. In Coach Wooden’s words, “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, you need a team.” We are proud of the Paycom Wooden Legacy’s tradition of embodying the values of the legendary college basketball Coach.

Enjoy the games,

Clint OverbyVice President, ESPN Events

Patrick Ewing is the first person to win the BIG EAST Tournament as both a player and head coach as Georgetown claimed the 2021 post-season title as the Hoyas advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since the 2015 season. Recognized as Georgetown’s greatest men’s basketball player, Ewing has been enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as an individual and as a member of the 1992 Dream Team that won Olympic gold. A three-time consensus first-team All-American, Ewing led the Hoyas to three NCAA championship games and the 1984 national title. He had a 17-season NBA career after being the first pick in the 1985 draft.
