Video: Caylin Raftopoulos (1992 Born) Tearing It UP!
Caylin Raftopoulos may just be the one player who you can guarantee is going to bring at least one highlight EVERY game. But don’t get it twisted, the 5’8″ point guard is more than just a highlight reel player, he can flat out ball and has been on the fringes of the national team setup since he was 15.
A 1992 born, Raftopoulos is lightning quick, has nasty handle with a vision few can match and isn’t afraid to go in amongst the trees with a teardrop that has caught many-a-big-man off guard.
Originally from the now-defunct London Towers programme, he spent time at Spelthorne Atoms and, most recently in the UK, for London United-Richmond College. The 2010-11 season he hopped across the pond to attend Arlington Country Day high school, before transferring to Althoff Catholic in Belleville, Illinois, for this season but unfortunately is being forced to sit due to eligibility issues.
Regardless of his current status, some of his highlights from the past two years at Midnight Madness, Future Stars and Fam-Fest make for a pretty nice highlight reel. Check it out.
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.
