ORLANDO TRIP TO LONDON
The London Lions have added American forward Orlando Parker to boost their squad.
He recently completed four seasons with PS Karlsruhe in Pro A in Germany where he averaged 12 points and six rebounds a game.
Lions head voach, Vince Macaulay, said: “We needed to address our imbalance. Byron Mullens is still away till the end of the month on a family matter in the US whilst injuries to Shane Walker, Josh Ward-Hibbert and Joe Ikhinmwin have hurt us in this area.
Orlando is an athletic guy that can shoot the ball but most importantly likes to rebound and work the glass, I believe his game will suit the BBL well.â€
Parker may see action in the Lions games this weekend Friday night when the Lions travel to the Newcastle Eagles and Sunday at the Copper Box Arena versus the Leicester Riders at 2.30pm, the game being live streamed on the Lions website for our fans..
Kervin Bristol has been de-registered from the BBL roster to make room.
Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
