WORCESTER Wolves Basketball Club's star American player Josh Cooprider is finally back in the city after a nightmare journey.

Cooprider, who returned home to the United States for Christmas, flew back a day late after his original flight was cancelled. He then faced a further six-hour delay in Seattle because of a bomb scare, and then on arrival in Amsterdam found all his luggage, including his kit, had gone missing!

He finally arrived back in Worcester today but is unlikely to play a full part in tomorrow's home clash with Hull.

Director of Operations Mick Donovan said: "We will probably stick him in the squad, but whether he will be as prominent as normal we are not sure. We hope to give him a run-out in the gym today."
