The Public League boys basketball playoffs start on Tuesday. All of the common season video games within the Pink have been accomplished, so the seeds have been decided. A number of coaches despatched the Solar-Occasions copies of the present playoff bracket.
Kenwood is the highest seed. The highest 4 finishers within the Defend (Kenwood, Lincoln Park, Simeon, Younger) and the highest 4 finishers within the Star (Dyett, Crane, Views-Management, Ag. Science) obtain first-round byes.
The groups that completed fifth by way of twelfth within the Defend decide up the 9-16 seeds. Groups that completed fifth by way of twelfth within the Star are seeded 17-24.
That is the primary season with the brand new playoff format.
The dates for the quarterfinals and semifinals are completely different from what Chicago Public Faculties supplied firstly of the season and what’s linked on the CPS basketball web site, so keep tuned for attainable adjustments with these. I’ll attempt to affirm them at present.
