Pops Mensah-Bonsu Faces Kevin Durant at The Goodman League! Huge Block & Dunk!

By Sam Neter on November 27, 2014

For a little throwback Thursday, we look back at when GB star Pops Mensah-Bonsu faced off against Kevin Durant at The Goodman League in Washington DC during the summer of 2013.

Tweets at the time were saying how Pops was locking up KD, and now thanks to The Mars Reel we have got our hands on some of the footage, including his big block and dunk off a spin move in the post!

Keep watching the video right until the end for bonus footage of Pops in a charity game dropping dimes! Mensah-Bonsu has just signed for Hapoel Jerusalem.

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.
