Will Neighbour, sat down with Trojans fan site Burn The Horse for a Q & A this week and explained how excited he was about playing for UALR, who he signed to this week.

Asked what it was in particular that drew him to UALR he said;

“(Assistant Coach) Charles Cunningham has been like a dad to me. He’s been through everything with me. When I took my visit up there I met Coach (Steve) Shields and (Assistant) Coach (Joe) Kleine. I can’t wait to work with Coach Kleine. That’s one thing a lot of the big schools don’t even have — a coach that’s been in The League (NBA) for 15 years with actual experience. I feel that was a great opportunity to get a chance to work with him everyday. They also have a great weight coach as well, John Barron. It’s a good program.”

He covers a wide variety of topics, from growing up, playing for GB and his shoulder injury. Make sure you check out the full interview here.

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
