Fahro Alihodzic Marks Comeback with Basketball Champions League Double-Double
Fahro Alihodzic posted a double-double in a narrow defeat for Sigal Prishtina in the first leg of the Basketball Champions League qualifiers.
The 30-year-old – who made his GB Senior debut in 2015 – returned to action following an injury that forced him to miss last season, posting 20 points and 12 rebounds.
So I haven’t had a real game in a year due to injury. Im super excited for today’s @BasketballCL Qualifier as our season kicks off. All that hard work to get basketball back in my life! Makes me nervous too

Alihodzic went 9 of 16 from the field to lead his team in scoring and also added two steals in 35 minutes of action with Prishtina heading to Poland for the second leg on Friday evening aiming to overturn the 79-81 deficit.
Meanwhile, Ryan Martin was a DNP for Belarusian champions Tsmoki-Minsk as they were beaten 93-86 in their first leg away at Karhu Bakset.
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.
