Hunter proud to take part in first-ever Pink Hoops

The importance of the first-ever Pink Hoops double-header to Jordi Hunter has been well-documented, due to the impact breast cancer has had on his family.

So when he and his Kings run onto the Qudos Bank Arena court for the first time wearing pink, he knows it'll be a moment he'll remember forever.

"Pink Hoops is a great cause and one that's important to me and my family, as breast cancer has impacted a lot of women in our family," Hunter said.

"It's really special that the Kings and Flames are supporting the McGrath Foundation in this way - raising much-needed funds for breast cancer nurses.

"I'm extremely proud to be part of a club that wants to run events like this and I can't wait to see all our amazing fans in pink come Sunday."

Despite the three straight losses, Hunter is upbeat about the team's morale and hopes of downing their NBL23 championship series opponents New Zealand.

"The morale in the group is good and every season has ups and downs, which we just happen to be going through right now.

"The way I see it, it's an opportunity for us to continue to grow and ensure we're playing our best basketball come season's end.

"[As a group] we've got belief in each other and talent assembled here that we can turn it around in these last seven games, starting with New Zealand - a team we have a lot of history with.

"The Breakers have been playing some strong basketball of late, including them getting one up on us last time, but if we put our best foot forward and play 40 minutes of Sydney Kings basketball, I'm confident we can cap Sunday's big double-header with a win."

Tickets for this historical afternoon of hoops, which will see the Flames play Perth at 1.15pm before the Kings hit the hardwood at 3.45pm, are still available here.
