Bristol Flyers hoping for return of the King ahead of BBL play-off clash at Manchester Giants

Bristol Flyers head coach Andreas Kapoulas is hopeful season MVP candidate VJ King can return from injury in time for their big play-off match-up against Manchester Giants.

Star forward King, who is in the top five points scorer in the British Basketball League (BBL) this season with 18.2 points per game, missed the last few weeks of the regular season after picking up a calf strain in a 90-82 defeat to Caledonia Gladiators in Glasgow at the start of April.

With the team set to tip off their post-season campaign on Thursday night, Kapoulas told BristolLive the American had been following rehab protocol with the club’s medical team.
