Ahead of the Hoopsfix All-Star Classic this weekend (girls Saturday – tickets here, boys Sunday – sold out), we headed down to Barking Abbey basketball academy in East London to speak to the BA players who have been selected to play in the 2019 edition of the Hoopsfix All-Star Classic; Ade Adebayo – last year’s Underclassmen MVP, Jonathan Brown – last year’s dunk contest champion, Robin Bedford, Theo Hughes, Nathaniel Powell and Chris Feeney.
They discuss their game, what it means to be selected, and what can be expected from them in the game.

Proud sponsors of the event include Nike, Molten, Sportser
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.
