Sport in brief with Jamie J: October 18, 2024

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL: The Super League season starts tomorrow afternoon with last year’s champions London Lions visiting Manchester at the National Basketball Performance Centre.

The Lions narrowly escaped liquidation in the summer and lost all of the squad that had also won the EuroCup after their previous owners, online gaming company 777, collapsed.

The Lions men’s and women’s teams were taken over by Latvia’s Zalgiris Kaunus club in August.
