Hoops Heaven‘s Basketball Hustle - Season 3, Episode 13

Another shake up for this week on Hoops Heaven's Basketball Hustle with another all-time great, Matty Knight, stepping into the hosting chair to discuss all the latest with #NBL22 with the insights only he can provide while we also catch up with Cairns Taipans legend Alex Loughton.

Three-time NBL champion and three-time All-NBL Team member Matty Knight is the co-host alongside Chris Pike for this week's Hoops Heaven's Basketball Hustle and there's plenty for us to get through after Round 11 of the NBL.

We begin discussing the remarkable finish to the Sydney Kings-Brisbane Bullets game on Sunday with the Jaylen Adams game winning dunk, offensive rebound and dish off to Jarell Martin. We discuss the implications of that on both the winning Kings and losing Bullets.

We also discuss Melbourne United's win over the Perth Wildcats with Matty believing Melbourne need to stick with the team they've got but perhaps the Wildcats need to add a big while he also pays tribute to 400-game former teammate Jesse Wagstaff.

Other topics covered include the Tasmania JackJumeprs without Will Magnay, the struggles of the Illawarra Hawks and the signing of NBA champion Ian Clark for the Sydney Kings.

It's then time to catch up with former 311-game NBL great Alex Loughton. We discuss his thoughts on his beloved Cairns Taipans after a couple of rough losses in Round 11. He offers his insights into the return of Scott Machado and what it means for the likes of Tahjere McCall and Bul Kuol. He also helps us select the winner of #TheGalen Best Team Man for this week and offers his perspective on the Perth Wildcats 40th Anniversary Team.

Matty Knight is then back on deck to preview Round 12 in the NBL and to wrap up the show.
