A product of the London Stars programme with dual British and Lithuanian passports, 18-year-old Emilis Zibuda returns to London having most recently developed his game at Layton Christian Academy in the United States. The 6'7" guard/forward averaged 14.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 steals for the Lions at the EuroLeague adidas Next Generation Tournament, and was selected for the NBA and FIBA's Basketball Without Borders Europe camp, where he won the three-point contest. One of the brightest young prospects in the UK, Zibuda represents exactly the calibre of talent the Lions are looking to build around.
