Basketball legend, Pero Cameron (Ngāpuhi), is concerned for the Tall Blacks' future, due to their lack of funding.
Basketball NZ is effectively broke after it was announced last month that Sport NZ wouldn't be providing the organisation any funding for the Tall Blacks this year.
Cameron is currently an assistant coach for the Tall Blacks and believes the Tall Blacks won't be able to find success unless there's money to spend on an international programme.
