New Zealand have gone further than ever at the Under 17 World Cup after beating Lithuania in the quarterfinals.

They're also the second NZ basketball team to make the semifinals of a World Cup.

Phill Jones was part of the first team to make a semi at the 2002 World Cup, and his son, Hayden is part of this Under 17 team.

He joined Piney to discuss how big this achievement is for basketball in New Zealand.

Jones told him that it’s a pretty big achievement, what with basketball being one of the biggest sports in the world, for a younger group to make it to the World Championship.
