Basketball: Fotu family relishing time together on home court

If Steven Adams is the king of New Zealand basketball, then the Fotus are the royal family.

It's not often the siblings are under the same roof, but the stars have aligned for them to lace up back on home court.

Eldest brother Isaac, a former University of Hawaii star who now plies his trade in Germany, heads the impressive quartet.

The 24-year-old has recently been named in the Tall Blacks squad to play Hong Kong and China in FIBA World Cup qualifying.

But it doesn’t stop there. In fact, three of the four family members have made a name for themselves abroad.

Sister Ella just finished her second season at the University of Hawaii, while younger brother Dan, 18, is taking his talents to Saint Mary's College in California.

The trio have set a high standard for youngest Jacob, 14, who is rising through the North Harbour age group ranks.

The Fotu parents - Manu and Jenny - admit the wealth of success has come with sacrifice, including many trips back and forwards to various gyms across Auckland.

And of course, saying goodbye to their kids as they embark on their dreams across the world is never easy.

But seeing them achieve greatness will always override those emotions.

Basketball has - and continues - to put stamps in the passports for the Fotus, as they look to stamp their claim on the game in different continents.
