After the success of the University of Wisconsin international exhibition game in 2017, the Hawthorn Basketball Association (HBA) will again play host to an international team in 2018.
The HBA is pleased to announce that the Chinese Taipei Men’s National Team will play an exhibition game at the Boroondara Sports Complex on Saturday 4 August 2018.
Fresh off their World Cup Qualifying campaign that had them pitted against the mighty Australian Boomers outfit, the Chinese Taipei National Team will play against a selected AND1 All Star Team.
The AND1 All Stars team will consist of past and present NBL, SEABL and Big V players who will be looking to put on as show for basketball fans in Boroondara.
Further AND1 All Star team player announcements will be made next week.
