Pregame Notes

— Jordan Derkack took a pregame lap around the floor and looks ready to go for tonight's championship game. Despite being hobbled by an ankle injury in the last two games, Derkack played 38 minutes in Saturday's semifinal. 

— ESPN2 will have the national broadcast of tonight's game. The ESPN crew is set up in the corner on the floor.

— The game is a full sellout. Tickets were gone as of yesterday afternoon.

— I'll have more pregame notes and live coverage of tonight's game in our live chat, which will go live at 6:30 p.m. ET.
