WATCH: Marcus Thornton at the 2015 Portsmouth Invitational Tournament

After leading William & Mary to its first regular-season CAA championship in 17 years, Marcus Thornton headed to the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament in Portsmouth, VA.

His shooting ability, athleticism and quickness were on full display against 64 of the nation’s top seniors. For Holmes, the PIT proved to be a step toward eventually being selected 45th overall by the Celtics in the 2015 NBA Draft.
