Callum Jones, Manchester Giants guard – “They look like they are the team to beat again. Trying to control Fletcher will be key but they have lots of other guys who can be effective to so we have to be very focused defensively.


“Offensively we need lots of cuts and movement on the weak side as their defence is very good on the ball.”
