Saturday night in the BBL Championship saw a first win of the season for the Worcester Wolves, while the Jelson Homes DMU Leicester Riders maintained their unbeaten start.

The renewal of a classic old BBL rivalry saw the One Health Sharks Sheffield cross the Pennines to meet the Manchester Giants, with the Giants triumphing by 99-87 after a storming second half comeback.

This weekend will see the Manchester Giants Basketball Club take to the floor in the BBL for the first time in over 10 years. I had hoped to be there but unfortunately I am unable to attend.
