The 3-pt line was correct on one end of court and short (perhaps a foot) on the other end of court. This was learned shortly before a game. The teams decided to play the game instead of waiting an hour to fix with tape. Both teams shot better from the longer/correct end. Don't know how the prior 4 games went in this respect. At Moda Center.
This is being blamed on the supplier of the courts. "Connor Sports, the company contracted to install all of the courts for the men's and women's tournaments, was called out for that error."
