Badminton News Four Thomas Cup Slots Up for grabs

Badminton News Four Thomas Cup Slots Up for Fighting. BA Malaysia (BAM) could make last-minute changes to their Hanoi Sea Games squad if it means sending the best line-up to Bangkok for next month’s Thomas Cup. Since each country is allowed to register 12 players for the Thomas Cup, national bodies may consider adding more options to their squad by naming the players originally registered for the Sea Games. Previously, BAM selected Lim Chong King, Jacky Kok, Justin Hoh, and Lee Shun Yang as the four men’s singles players for Vietnam duty.

With only world number 7 players, Lee Zii Jia and Ng Tze Yong confirmed for the Thomas Cup squad. BAM coaching director Rexy Mainaky has confirmed that Aaron Chia/Soh Wooi Yik, Ong Yew Sin/Teo Ee Yi, and Goh Sze Fei/Nur Izzuddin Rumsani will play in the Thomas Cup, meaning there are still four more spots up for grabs. National men’s singles coach Hendrawan said BAM did not rule out appointing more professional players such as Liew Daren or Cheam June Wei for the Thomas Cup.

Malaysia Aims To Top The Group

“To this day, we are still waiting to finalize our lineup. Wong Choong Hann (single coaching director) and Rexy will be doing it soon. Whatever the decision, rest assured that we will send our best team for the Thomas Cup. If we look at our previous Thomas Cup squad and the team that won the Asian Teams Championship in February. We have three strong singles players and some young players too. I can’t say for sure as to whether there might have been some last-minute changes to the Sea Games squad. But I believe we can still do it,” said Hendrawan.

The Indonesian showed it was important to have more options in the squad, as Malaysia aimed to top their group in Bangkok. Malaysia is in Group D for the Thomas Cup with 2014 champions Japan, England, and New Zealand.

“Based on our previous experience, we all know how important it is to win the group. If we can top the group, then we will be seeded to advance to the quarter-finals. So it’s always good to have more options in our squad. It doesn’t matter if these players are our own players or professionals. If they make a team, then they have to use it to prove themselves. Teams must register their Thomas Cup team before 22 April.

Towers will meet Valencia Basket in the last 16 of the EuroCup next week in hopes of advancing further in the playoffs. The 21-year-old also played for the German national team during this season’s FIBA ​​World Cup Qualifiers.

With an average of 10.3 points and 4.8 assists. His most successful appearance so far was against Israel, where he scored 18 points and provided 8 assists. The NBA draft will take place on June 23. Hollatz has not been included in the latest ESPN Top 100 Draft prospect list. Germany and the Tower of Hamburg point guard Justus Hollatz have signed up for this year’s NBA draft, his agent has announced. With a strong season, the 20-year-old caught the attention of NBA scouts. His 1.94 m height as a point guard is very attractive. Hollatz is averaging 8.0 points, 5.5 assists, and 2.4 rebounds per game on easyCredit BBL this season. (As of 13 April 2022) The Hamburg Tower is currently on the cusp of reaching the playoffs. With a record 15:13 wins, Hamburg is in eighth place. At 7DAYS EuroCup, the round of 16 against Valencia Basket is still pending.

The Game Is Getting Smoother

On this big stage, there is yet another opportunity for Hollatz to present himself to the NBA teams. Hollatz had signed up for the NBA draft last year but later withdrew his registration. This case could happen again if the 20-year-old player does not get a promise from any team that they want to choose Hollatz. The NBA draft will be held this year on June 23, 2022, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. After skyrocketing over the past four years, Justus Hollatz has now established himself in the German national team. Like Maodo Lo, the 20-year-old has never played for any of the youth teams. Although Hollatz only has six international games to his credit. The 1.94-meter-tall point guard made a big contribution to two very important wins against Israel in the last World Cup qualifying window.

Especially in the away match in Tel Aviv, the point guard is Germany’s best player with a total of 16 points and 8 assists. In the second game too, Hollatz played a big role in the victory, starting the German team’s revival at the end of the third quarter. Due to his performances in this qualifying window, the 20-year-old was able to establish himself as the number 3 point guard behind NBA professional Dennis Schröder and ALBA BERLIN’s Maodo Lo. Given the European Championships at home this September, Hollatz has a good chance of becoming part of the Germany squad. Thanks to his size and defense, the 20-year-old can also be on the pitch as a shooting guard alongside Dennis Schröder or Maodo Lo. It is also unclear to what extent Dennis Schröder will be available for the German national team due to his unresolved contract situation.

Fury vs Whyte PPV Prices Are Very Expensive

Boxing News Fury vs Whyte PPV Prices Are Very Expensive

Boxing News Fury vs Whyte PPV Prices Are Very Expensive. US boxing fans need to dig deeper by spending $69.99 to watch Tyson Fury defend his WBC heavyweight title against Dillian Whyte on April 23 on ESPN+ to watch the two fight at Wembley Stadium in London, England. To keep up to date with boxing news, keep up with the latest news from EkingsNews. For football news, the most popular soccer predictions, you can also see the soccer schedule.

“Everything is very sad. We bid a lot of money for this fight, which puts a lot of money in Dillian’s pocket. Frank Warren told talkSPORT Boxing. “It’s a little over seven and a half million dollars guaranteed, and he gets four million dollars if he wins. He must be happy. I don’t know why we are enemies in this, and he has a four advantage if he wins. Everything is very sad. It is the largest boxing event ever to take place in the country, and the largest gate 94,000. At Wembley, this is the biggest one-day event. It’s a big thing, and I don’t know why he sucks,” Frank said of Dillian.

“It seemed like a tremendous amount of sabotage,” said Gareth A. Davies. “We heard an argument between you and Jeffrey Benz. Have they been trying to bridge the river since then? We have complied with everything in the contract. He hasn’t. He asks for things that are not in the contract, and the way he asks for them is quite antagonistic and demanding. It’s like blackmail, and it is.”

Boxers With Big Names

‘If you don’t do this, we won’t appear at the press conference.’ That is unacceptable and I will not tolerate that. He must have picked the wrong person there. The bottom line is all we want is a successful event. All we want is Dillian Whyte to live up to his contractual commitments. That’s all we want, nothing more, nothing less, and he hasn’t done so until now. The officials are chosen by the WBC and the Boxing Control Board.” Warren said.

“The contract states quite clearly that we follow the WBC rules and regulations and for them to appoint officials, and not for me,” Warren said. “It must have been very frustrating,” Davies said. “I know you state that Dillian has no legal obligation to do much, but I think they feel they are getting closer to this fight,” Davies told hosts Adam Catterall.

“This is an amazing fight. This must be frustrating. Bob Arum has created a huge Tyson Fury figure in America. He was regenerated, reborn Phoenix from the ashes after that first Wilder. His rise in the 12th round and his position and resonance with the American public and, of course, with the British public as well. I think it will be very difficult for Dillian Whyte. If Dillian wins, everyone will say he is a genius at what he does, and his team is doing the right thing. Boxing is like that. The narrative changes with what happens. If Dillian doesn’t do well in combat and gets schooled and dumped by Tyson Fury, I think there’s going to be some sympathy. I don’t care what people say.”
