I got some time from Gareth last week and spoke for over an hour on his basketball career so far. Really interesting journey and shares his thoughts on past rocks teams but also a few GB memories. Its available on all podcast sites and available on spotify below spoti.fi/2OjFGwr

Thanks youngrocks Cheers Some great nostalgia in this interview. Hadn't realised that Murray had such a humble start in basketball and that he began with Rocks as a result of a Kelvin Hall trial And his first season featured the likes of Yanders, Swanson, (Lijah) Perkins & (fleetingly) Charles Smith And I was intrigued to hear about his filler jobs such as hotel work & in British Home Stores (I probably dined in there at some point (probably shepherds pie and a pudding with custard)) And I also remember what a pit Kelvin Hall was - I trekked all the way up there (or at least I was in the passenger seat being chauffeured by my driver) to watch Birmingham Bullets in a 90s pre-season tournament and was actually dozing off in the early hours when I was awoken by the news of the Princess Diana car-crash.
