Every young Londoner deserves access to safe, active and affordable spaces, especially during the colder winter months. That’s why I’ve partnered with the @NBA and @Better_UK to offer hundreds of £1 basketball sessions at Better Leisure Centres across the capital.

Great to be with the NBA and my Basketball Taskforce before the Memphis Grizzlies v Orlando Magic NBA London Game - our work together means more access to basketball in London’s leisure centres, and more community basketball courts ⛹️

The NBA's London match is a springboard for young Londoners to get involved in basketball. City Hall has pumped nearly £2m into the capital's facilities to expand access and engagement with leisure centres and community courts.

Over the years my obsession has become less about the actual basketball and more about the barriers that are preventing British basketball from reaching its potential and how to overcome them. 🇬🇧🏀
