Ed McCants and his group of Milwaukee Panther basketball alumni are not only playing to represent their school, they are also playing for a greater cause. The team has announced it will donate $200,000 to help combat the heroin epidemic should they win.
 
Over the course of the next few weeks we will look at the roster that has been assembled. Up next is Joah Tucker.
 
Tucker was one of the most accomplished players in Milwaukee men's basketball history despite playing only three seasons (2003-06) for the Panthers after transferring from Bradley University. The 6-foot-5 guard/forward led Milwaukee to three postseason appearances in his three years and during the 2005 NCAA Tournament, he averaged a whopping 25.3 points per game in helping the Panthers reach the Sweet 16.
 
A starter in all 94 of his career games as a Panther, Tucker ranks eighth on the school's career scoring chart with 1,416 points and averaged 15.1 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game. He was a two-time First Team All-Horizon League pick and in the 2005 NCAA Regional semifinal game versus eventual national runner-up Illinois tallied a career-best 32 points.
