Welcome back to the new season of Building Better Basketball, the Basketball Australia Coaches Podcast. We took a little break for the Olympics but we are back and we needed to have a guest that was on the ground. We needed a guest with profile. A guest who like Madonna and Prince is known by just one name. We needed Junior! Junior is the Team Lead and Manager of the Boomers to give him his full title but his job actually covers much more than just those 3 words as we are about to find out. 

Boomers Assistant Coach and San Antonio Spurs Assistant Coach Matthew Nielsen presented at the BALLIN Coaching clinic on offensive spacing.
