In short

London, Friday 13 November 2026 – London Lions are pleased to announce the return of Ade Adebayo, who has rejoined the club on a short-term contract and will be available for tonight's Super League Basketball (SLB) fixture against the Surrey 89ers at the Copper Box Arena.

The 6'5" London-born guard returns to the capital following a strong 2025–26 campaign in Spain with Sol Girones Bisbal Basket. Adebayo started 16 games, averaging 14.4 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.0 steal per game, while shooting 48.9% from the field.

Having already spent time with the Lions earlier this season, Adebayo is familiar with the team and has demonstrated the depth, versatility and experience he can bring to the squad. His return provides further options in the backcourt as the Lions continue their domestic campaign.

Adebayo developed his game at Barking Abbey before playing collegiately at UC Davis, bringing valuable experience from both the UK and overseas to his return to London.
