Haribo London Towers sealed the BBL Championship series with rivals Leopards with a 91-75 victory at Crystal Palace NSC on Saturday evening. 

After an even first five minutes, Leopards edged the first quarter and built up an 11-point lead early in the second period at 18-29. Towers hit ten answered points after that, to bring themselves back into the game, and by the half-time interval, had established an eight-point lead at 47-39. 

A 15-0 tear in the third, including a trio of consecutive three-pointers from Steve Bucknall, saw Towers take a 67-46 lead. 

However Leopards' play-caller Bob Donewald was controversially ejected early in the fourth quarter for appealing what appeared to be a refereeing error, the harshly-judged double technical proving a handicap which was too great for his team to recover from. 

Bucknall led Towers scoring with 20 points, but Rashod Johnson led all scorers with 26. 

The Londoners now need one more win to seal the Southern Conference title.
