Newcastle Eagles are back-to-back BBL title winners
Last updated at
Newcastle Eagles claimed a seventh British Basketball League title in 10 years with a 107-97 victory over Manchester Giants.
Despite a substantial injury list that limited them to six players on the night, the Eagles moved out of reach of second-placed Leicester Riders.
Charles Smith played all 40 minutes and scored 27 points to keep the title with Fabulous Flournoy's team.
It completes a treble for Newcastle, after winning the BBL Cup and Trophy.
Elsewhere, Glasgow Rocks moved up to fifth with a 96-77 win over Surrey United, with Omotayo Ogedengbe scoring 22 points.
