Opinion Basketball Background 22

[Jackington]

Bit of silly season stuff, as it's too early for me to decide if players or teams are good or bad yet;

The Back Pocket Presents: The "Basketball Background" 22.

This took some backbreaking googling and archived article searching, but we finally arrived at a full 22 of players who had a serious go at basketball in their youth.

Thanks to the update from Will Day, we'd probably swap out youngster Josh Draper for Blake Hardwick

Former Lion and current Demon Tom Fullarton was captain of an Australian Under 17 side to a World Cup, was also on the Brisbane Bullets list for a couple of years, rarely got on the court though.

Hugh Greenwood

He’d be the C. Could be been a really high level basketballer. I reckon he will have a late crack at if he’s delisted end of season

 

[ioppolo]

How could you miss the commentary team's favourite one, Pendlebury?

That team probably joins the logjam of 6th-12th in any given season imo.
