    Sad news for New Zealand basketball fans when it comes to the country's biggest star in the sport

    Sad news for New Zealand basketball fans when it comes to the country's biggest star in the sport


    Just two days out from the start of the new NBA season - the Memphis Grizzlies have confirmed Steven Adams will have season-ending knee surgery.

    The Kiwi centre had only returned to the court in this month's pre-season games - having not played since suffering the knee injury in January this year.

    The Grizzlies say they expect Adams to make a full recovery for the 2024-25 season.
