Italy v Great Britain: One change to GB roster ahead of Livorno showdown
Great Britain Men’s head coach Marc Steutel has confirmed one change to the 12-man roster that will take to the floor in Livorno on Monday for the second of back-to-back World Cup Qualifying clashes with Italy (6:30pm).
Quinn Ellis joins the roster for the second game of the window, fresh from equalling a EuroLeague career-high 10 assists against Hapoel Tel Aviv on Thursday night, in place of Falco KC sharpshooter Patrick Whelan.
The remainder of the roster is unchanged as Coach Steutel and his side look to bounce back from defeat in front of a sell-out crowd in Newcastle on Friday night with a victory on foreign soil in what would be GB’s first-ever win against Italy.
The game is available to watch live and for free for UK customers on Courtside 1891.
