The First Show

On the 13th January The UK Basketball Hub became the ONLY TV show in Britain on Sports Tonight Live (Freeview HD 244)

Covering a range of topics, we invited 3 guests onto the show and also had a phone call from GB co-captain Kieron Achara.

Our guests this week were: Evelyn Adebayo (Barking Abbey), Luke Hatfield (Bouncy Orange Ball) and Vince Macaulay (London Lions).

It was a busy week in British basketball with the BBL Cup and WBBL Trophy being contested the previous Sunday and NBA London taking place on the Thursday - so a lot to talk about!
