The London Lions defensive identity was recognized league-wide as Deane Williams, Tarik Phillip, and Chaundee Brown Jr. were all named to the SLB All-Defensive Team of the Year.
Williams anchored the forward rotation with versatility, switching across multiple positions and providing help-side rim protection.
Phillip was one of the league’s most disruptive perimeter defenders, averaging 1.4 steals per game while consistently setting the tone with his on-ball pressure, tempo control, and physicality.
Brown Jr. brought relentless energy on the defensive end, using his motor and strength to guard multiple positions and generate momentum-shifting stops.
The recognition reflects a season-long commitment to defensive intensity that has been central to the Lions’ success.
