Bristol Flyers head coach Andreas Kapoulas and captain Mike Miller have spoken of the club’s desire to “take another step forward” and reach their first British Basketball League (BBL) play-off final.
The Flyers booked their tickets for the semi-final with an impressive 27-point win on aggregate over Manchester Giants. The in-form team extended a winning streak of five games, dating back to the end of the regular season, by edging out their opponents 82-21 in the second leg, in front of a jubilant home crowd at SGS College Arena on Sunday.
It’s the third time Bristol have reached the last four of the competition since they joined UK basketball’s elite division in 2014. Standing between them and a spot in the BBL’s showpiece event at the O2 in London next month are defending champions Leicester Riders.
