Hey,

Spend all day yesterday preparing for the Classic rosters announcement (see below) I completely forgot about the newsletter!

This week's 3-pointer:

🇬🇧 Hoopsfix All-Star Classic rosters are out

The rosters for #HASC24 are now out - find out who made the cut in the Under-19 men here, and the Under-19 women here. It's never easy picking just 24, and has become increasingly more difficult in recent years as more and more players head to the US early - that said, we've got a great group who will no doubt put on a show on May 26th! Get your tickets now, before they're all gone!

🏆 Junior Final Fours completed in Manchester

It was a busy weekend in Manchester last week, with Canterbury Crusaders winning their maiden junior title in the U18 men's competition, CoLA Southwark Pride re-asserting their dominance to take the U18 women's competition, Manchester Magic taking the U16 boys, Milton Keynes the U16 girls, and Manchester Mystics and London Elite taking the U14 girls and boys respectively.

🗣 Gabe Olaseni speaks to Hoopsfix

One of our young writers got the chance to speak to Gabe Olaseni to have a chat about the EuroCup season, the British Basketball League and hopes for a playoff title - have a read!

That wraps up another week, as always hit reply with any thoughts, questions or anything else!

With gratitude,

Sam

P.S. Keep an eye on Quinn Ellis' NBA draft journey!
