<p>As Britain&#8217;s top basketball league, the BBL, is currently postponed due to COVOID-19 their doesn&#8217;t seem like much hope for competitive basketball to return anytime soon. <strong><em>“Probably the hardest thing is just trying to find motivation to keep training by yourself. Especially when you are part of a team sport, it’s hard to go for a run or do drills by yourself.” </em></strong> The London Lions 2*MVP told the Evening Standard.</p>
<p>Despite basketball being the most popular sport played in the UK by 11- to 15-year-old, the sport does&#8217;t receive the funding, support or recognition it deserves in the UK. <em><strong>&#8220;It just seems that the Government doesn’t respect basketball&#8221;</strong></em></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Third overall pick in the 2017 NBA draft, Jayson Tatum, joins elite company as one of Jordan Brands 50+ athlete roster across multiple sports.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>“It’s a tremendous feeling to be a part of the Jordan Brand family,&#8221; </em> <em>&#8220;I can’t really express how happy and excited I am for this journey. It’s truly an honor.&#8221; says Tatum</em></strong></p>
<p>Since joining the league the Boston Celtics superstar kicks of choice has been both <a href="https://www.footfire.co.uk/tag/pg/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Paul George</a> and <a href="https://www.footfire.co.uk/tag/kyrie/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Kyrie Irving</a> silhouettes. It comes a bit of a shock as Tatum was the first player to test out <a href="https://www.footfire.co.uk/tag/nike/">Nike&#8217;s</a> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsq6_g-ldDw/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Hyperadapt BB</a> shoe, leading the campaign. However, Michael Jordan himself made the pitch which and its hard to see any athlete turning down an offer from the GOAT.</p>
<p>Going into his third season Tatum has already proved himself to be one of the leagues rising stars and with the likely departure of Kyrie in free agency, Tatum will have the keys to the Celtics franchise. Stay tuned for more info as it becomes available and be sure to check out the latest <a href="https://www.footfire.co.uk/tag/jordan-brand/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Jordan Brand deals</a> from Foot Fire &#8220;Assisting you to slam dunk savings&#8221;.</p>
