Lowe, who wears number 4 for GB, was recently awarded the title of Most Improved Player in the club’s end of season supporters vote and started strong in day one of the tournament.

Meanwhile Evbuomwan spent half of last season training with the BBL team before returning to pick-up from his rookie season in the NCAA with the Ivy League Princeton Tigers.
