    The pandemic-enforced postponement of a US basketball scholarship has turned into a maiden Silver Ferns camp for defender Paris Lokotui

    The pandemic-enforced postponement of a US basketball scholarship has turned into a maiden Silver Ferns camp for defender Paris Lokotui


    The 19-year-old was brought into the squad as cover for next week's three tests against England in Christchurch, but the four Auckland-based players have since been granted travel exemptions.

    Lokotui's aware she may not play, but wants to learn.



    The first test is on Monday night.
