Willie Cauley-Stein made a big impact on defense and pulled down key rebounds at the 2024 Traffic Basketball Tournament. His team, La Familia, narrowly defeated Boeheim’s Army 75-73 in the Final Four following a late overturned foul call. That victory put them within reach of the $1 million prize. Cauley-Stein had been away from the NBA since 2021, but his ability to lock down big names like Montrezl Harrell proved his value. Postgame discussions praised his defense in close moments.
