Though he came off the bench, he played almost 30 minutes (he was playing almost 40 minutes per game as a starter) and led Union to a win with 22 points.

The Lakers faced Seattle in the nightcap for the tournament championship.      Ed Gray, whose 3-pointer with 3.4 seconds left in regulation tied the score at 78 and capped a 12-point fourth quarter by the rookie guard, led Atlanta with 25 points.      After a slam dunk by Anthony ``Pig'' Miller tied the score at 88 with 33 seconds left in the first overtime, Whitney missed a jumper from the top of the key as the buzzer sounded.      But Whitney hit a driving layup to give Washington a 95-92 lead and added a 3-pointer with 54 seconds left in the second extra period for a 100-94 lead. Atlanta made only one field goal over the final 2:57.      The Wizards, missing Juwan Howard and Gheorghe Muresan with ankle injuries and point guard Rod Strickland for the third consecutive game because of an injured left hamstring, also lost swingman Calbert Cheaney with an injured left knee and forward Darvin Ham with a bloody nose.      Cheaney hurt himself while committing a hard foul on Matt Steigenga, as the Hawks' second-year forward drove the lane on a fast break in the final seconds of the first half. Ham was injured while committing a flagrant foul against Gray in the paint with 7:55 left.      Gray sank both free throws to increase Atlanta's lead to 71-63 with 4:56 to play, but Oliver triggered a quarter-ending 15-7 run with a 3-pointer. Whitney sank both free throws to put Washington ahead for the first time, 76-75, with 1:05 left.       Miller missed two free throws at the other end before rookie God Shammgod, who had 16 assists, hit both foul shots to give Washington a 78-75 lead with 8.2 seconds left in the fourth. But Gray responded with his clutch 3-pointer.      Washington finished the pre-season with a 3-4 record while Atlanta finished at 4-4.
