GENO GETS GOOD NEWS

By on April 2, 2021

Geno Crandall could be back for the close of Leicester Riders’ title run.

The American guard, potentially the favourite for this season’s British Basketball League MVP award, has been out for two weeks since sustaining a hand injury.

There had been fears that the former Gonzaga standout would miss the remainder of the campaign as the BBL leaders look to close out a championship.

But Riders head coach Rob Paternostro has signalled that the prognosis is positive for a return.

“We hope so,” he said. “We’re optimistic that he will be back at some point. We had to go through a bunch of tests to find out where he is at.

“So we got some good news. He’s still a little bit away.

“Knowing Geno, he’s desperate to get back on the floor. He’s as tough as they come. So we’ll welcome him back when he’s ready.”

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.
