REINKING TO MISS EURO CRUNCH

By on February 1, 2021

Nate Reinking will not be on the sidelines for Great Britain’s crucial final two EuroBasket qualifiers.

Marc Steutel, along with Andreas Kapoulas and Jamie Smith, will take charge on site against Germany and France this month in Montenegro, as first revealed in The MVP Mail.

Again diverted by his NBA G-League duties with the Canton Charge – who are, in turn, confined to its bubble site in Florida – the return leg with the French on February 22 will be the sixth consecutive absence for the former GB international.

MVP understands that Reinking has been in direct phone contact with players ahead of finalising the squad for the double-header, but his assistants will be at the helm.

Following last November’s 74-59 win over the Montenegrins under Steutel, GB will likely book a trip to the Euro finals with one victory out of two with the Germans already assured of qualification as co-hosts.

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.
