Riders return to winning ways

The Leicester Riders recovered from losing their first game of the season last weekend by beating the Manchester Giants 82-71 on Friday night.

Rob Paternostro's side, who were surprisingly turned over by Surrey last time out, were impressive at Wright Robinson College, with Zaire Taylor top-scoring with 23 points.

David Aliu was the home side's best performer with 19 points.
