Thames Valley Tigers bounced back from Saturday’s disappointment to beat Brighton Bears 77-106 on Sunday at the Brighton Centre. 

It was a game that the visitors dominated throughout, as they turned a 24-17 first-quarter advantage into a 17-point half-time lead, thanks to an 11-0 tear in the second quarter. A further 14-2 run in the third period put the game beyond the Bears and gave Thames Valley their first win of the season. 

John McCord spearheaded the Tigers’ attack with a game-high 28 points, while Michael Brown added 27 points for the home side.
