In-form Thames Valley Tigers recovered from a poor start in their game to see off the London Leopards 113-99 on Saturday night in the BBL Championship.

The Leopards shot out of the blocks a 6-0 tear helping them to an early 14-29 lead but they had no answer to the shooting of Tigers pair John McCord and Greg Meldrum who both scored game high 26 points.

Paul James' men posted final quarter bursts of 7-0 and 8-0 without reply to seal the victory.

Rico Alderson led the Leopards on 21.
