NBL Championship winning coach and three-time coach of the year Joey Wright joins the Aussie Hoopla podcast to talk about his plans to improve the Adelaide 36ers' roster for this season,
Despite losing star player Josh Childress in Game 2 of the NBL Finals, the Sixers still pushed eventual champions Melbourne to a decisive Game 5 and now the team hope to go one step further in 2018-19.
The 36ers roster last season featured a core group of impressive home gown talent which Joey has developed over the past three seasons which is now in jeopardy of being dismantled through NBA opportunities and free agency.
