Walker's long Ranger sees Newcastle to win



 
 
 
 

Natural Flow Newcastle Eagles came from behind to defeat the Manchester Giants 80-78 in
the BBL Championship on Friday night. And it was thanks to TJ Walker, who finished the game with 21 points and bagged the final points of the game - a three-pointer - to win the game for the hosts. 
 

Earlier, the Giants had led 54-39 in the third quarter, before Eagles hit back with a 16-4 tear in the third to bring the score back to within three points at 55-58. 

Then, Eagles' Donnie Johnson spearheaded a 9-2 final period run to take the lead at 75-73 and they just hung on for the win. 

The game's top marksman was Giants' Justin Phoenix who netted 27 points.
