Marshall MK Lions kept their noses in front in the race for fourth place in the BBL Championship thanks to a come-from-behind 75-74 victory over the PAWS London Capital at the Bletchley Leisure Centre on Friday evening.

A 10-0 burst for the Lions bought them level at 67-67 in the final period. The Capital immediately responded with a 7-2 tear of their own to take the score out to 69-74.

Yorick Williams bagged a pair of free-throws for the Lions, and that was followed by a Greg Harvey basket to get the Lions to within a point at 73-74.

A steal from Terrell Brown and a foul by the Raiders sent Brown to the foul-line with 4s remaining. Brown held his nerve to sink both free-throws to secure the victory for the Lions.

Earlier in the game, the Capital had opened an eight point lead in the opening quarter at 15-23 off the back of a 6-0 run.

They increased their advantage in the third period to twelve points at 48-60 after an 8-0 burst before the Lions came back at them in the closing stages.

Williams led the Lions scoring with 18 points, while the Capital had Ibrahim Gariba and Lijah Perkins to lead their scorers with game-high 19 points a-piece.
