We are back for a third season of Hoops Heaven's Basketball Hustle and there is plenty of ground to cover in this first episode a week out from the beginning of the #NBL22 season.

This season, Hoops Heaven's Basketball Hustle will be co-hosted by 'The Never Was' Chris Pike and 'The Has Been' Damian Martin. With the combination of a 15-year NBL writer and six-time NBL champion and six-time Best Defensive Player, we are looking forward to keeping you updated on everything happening in the 2021/22 NBL season.

We also announce our plans for Hoops Heaven's Basketball Hustle this season which will include Shawn Redhage, Rob Beveridge, Adam Gibson and Alex Loughton all being part of team. We will speak to each man once a month and rotate between them on each episode during the season.

We also take a close look at all 10 NBL clubs ahead of the #NBL22 season while both co-hosts put their necks on the line by making their predictions for the season ahead.

All made possible thanks to the support of Hoops Heaven (www.hoopsheaven.com.au) and TABtouch (www.tabtouch.com.au).
