Gabe Olaseni at Iowa Big Ten Feature – The Journey

By Sam Neter on February 1, 2016

Flashback to last year when Gabe Olaseni was in his Senior year at Iowa, and the Big Ten did this great video feature on him which has just been released on their YouTube channel.

Covering his trip back to London with the team in 2013, as well as the tragic loss of his Father – it provides really nice insight into the 6’11” big man plying his trade with Giessen 46ers in Germany.

Olaseni is currently averaging 12.8 points, 8 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.3 blocks per game for Giessen in Germany’s top flight.

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.
