Derby Storm upset the form book with an impressive 101-86 success at home to Kinder London Towers in the BBL Championship on Saturday night, only a second league win for the Northern Conference whipping boys. 

Derby bagged an early 7-0 run, helping them to a 25-19 first quarter lead. They extended their lead in the second quarter to as many as ten points at 38-28, but Towers fought back in the third and an 11-1 run brought them back to within two points at 58-56. 

That was to be as close as Towers got, as Derby hit back with an 8-2 tear to lead 66-58 and although Towers cut the deficit again - this time to three points at 72-69, it was to be Derby's day. 

Brett Eppehimer led Towers' scoring with 19 points, while Tyler Peterson was the game's leading scorer with 23.
