GB will take to the court at Newcastle’s Vertu Motors Arena on 24 February against Belgium before travelling to Belgrade to face the Serbians on 27 February as Steutel and his staff conclude what has been a historic FIBA World Cup Qualifying campaign, with GB reaching the second qualifying phase for the first time in their history.
Alongside the established group of players who are well-known to GB fans, Coach Steutel has included a group of five potential debutants, with Amin Adamu, Michael Belle, Noah Horchler, Kimbal Mackenzie and Jelani Watson-Gayle looking for their first senior caps.
Gareth Murray and Jackson Gibbons continue in their roles as Assistant Coaches alongside Steutel, having made their debuts on the sidelines for the senior team in November. Andreas Kapoulas continues to be unavailable due to family commitments.
You can get your tickets for Great Britain’s battle with Belgium at the Vertu Motors Arena on 24 February via the Newcastle Eagles Box Office now.
