Ade Adebayo Returns to London Lions on Short-Term Contract!
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 tonightโs Super League Basketball (SLB) fixture against the Surrey 89ers at the Copper Box Arena.
The 6โ5โ London-born guard returns to the capital following a strong 2025โ26 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.

London leads the way as the sporting capital of the world, and I fully support the @LondonLions in their vision to create a world class basketball facility.
This venue would grow the sport, create opportunities for young people and bring economic benefits to our city.
And with that being said, I hope teams find roster spots for young up and coming Brits too, invaluable for prospects to be exposed to the professional game as young as possibleโฆ.
