Ben Gordon likely to miss Eurobasket because of NBA lockout


Detroit Pistons' Ben Gordon Gordon has previously said he wanted to play for GB at London 2012
Great Britain's Ben Gordon is set to miss the European Basketball Championship because of insurance problems caused by the NBA lockout.
British Basketball's performance director Chris Spice said it was "looking unlikely" the Detroit Pistons player would be available.
The lockout began on 1 July with owners calling for an overhaul in the NBA's pay structure.
This created insurance issues and GB can not afford the same level of cover.
