Tall Blacks coach putting positive spin on big loss ahead of Basketball World Cup next month
Tall Blacks coach Paul Henare is trying to put a positive spin on a big loss for his side ahead of the Basketball World Cup in China next month
30 July 2019
Captain Mika Vukona has been ruled out of the tournament with a knee injury suffered during the NBL.
While Henare says his leadership off the court is hard to replace, on the court they have depth.
He says Isaac Fotu is more than capable of stepping up and Finn Delaney is another guy that has shown some real rapid growth in the last couple of years.
Paul Henare names his 14 strong World Cup squad on Sunday.
