Fulton Faces Unexpected Challenge as Ireland Return Sparks Intense Spotlight

CJ Fulton is gearing up to step back onto the Irish hardwood after a nearly three-year hiatus, and he’s not shying away from the spotlight. The 23-year-old Belfast-born dynamo, fresh from a whirlwind ride signing with the NBA’s Minnesota Timberwolves, admits there’s going to be a bit more pressure and attention this time around. And honestly, who wouldn’t feel that? After missing the first two qualifiers due to college commitments, Fulton’s now laser-focused on helping Ireland claw their way through the nail-biting FIBA EuroBasket 2029 pre-qualifiers, kicking off with the must-win clash against Azerbaijan. The stakes couldn’t be higher, especially with recent losses to Luxembourg and North Macedonia hanging over the team like a thick fog.

There’s a real sense of purpose here: not just to win, but to boost the game’s growth at home and give back to the next generation. It’s a story of determination, evolution, and the raw intensity of chasing big dreams while carrying the hopes of a nation. LEARN MORE
