The Tournament: A History of ACC Men's Basketball

In an era when the NCAA tournament awarded just one berth per conference, the ACC transformed the sport with its own tournament -- to identify its champion (and its NCAA championship contender) -- immediately after regular season play. In the years since it first launched the conference tournament, the ACC has showcased many of the game's all-time greats, from David Thompson, Ralph Sampson, Michael Jordan and Tim Duncan to coaches Dean Smith, Mike Krzyzewski, Jim Valvano and Roy Williams. It has also influenced innovations like the shot clock and three-point line. "The Tournament: A History of ACC Men's Basketball Presented by New York Life" chronicles this in a new multi-part documentary from ESPN Films and the ACC Network (ACCN).
