London Lions, Kangoeroes Basket claim stunning first-leg wins in Play-Off Round 1

MUNICH (Germany) – There were major surprises in the EuroCup Women Play Off Round 1 first leg games and none more so than lowest-ranked side London Lions beating highest-ranked club Bourges Basket.

The Lions  pipped their illustrious French opponents 65-64 on an historic night for British Basketball. Jo Leedham, who won the 2016 EuroCup Women title with Bourges, haunted her ex-employers with 16 points. 8 rebounds and 4 assists.

Kangoeroes Basket are ranked 23rd and shot down 10th-ranked Polkowice 83-70, although the Belgian side may even feel slightly disappointed, since they led by as many as 27 points at one stage.
