Respawn Ball to specific spawnpoint after death

Hey guys and girls.
I’ve got this roll a ball game and i made a killCube that destroys the player Ball when it touches it.
According to my script it respawns the ball at Vector3.zero but i want it to respawn on an empty gameObject to my choosing.

this is my current KillCube script:

public class KillCube : MonoBehaviour {
    	
    	void OnCollisionEnter(Collision player)
    	{
    		if (player.gameObject.name == "player") {
    			player.gameObject.SetActive (false);
    		}
    	}
    }

and this is my current respawn script:

public class Respawn : MonoBehaviour {

	public GameObject player;
	public Transform spawnpoint;

	void Start() {
		spawnpoint = player.transform;
	}


	void Update()
	{
		if (player.gameObject.activeInHierarchy == false)
		{
			player.transform.position = Vector3.zero;
			player.SetActive (true);
		}
	}
}

it should be possible to spawn the ball back at the empty gameobject “spawnpoint” right? i just can’t figure out how to do that.

If you replace the line “player.transform.position = Vector3.zero” with player.transform.position = spawnPoint.position you’re ball should respawn at your spawnpoint.
