Big 12 Conference Commissioner Bob Bowlsby announced that the league will continue to play its men’s basketball tournament at Sprint Center through 2024, extending the current deal by four years. The women’s tournament is also returning to Kansas City to run concurrently with the men’s event.

“We really don’t have much debate at this point about the site of our men’s tournament, Bowlsby said. “This is a wonderful venue to host it. The area around it has gotten better and better.”
