Leicester Riders are delighted to confirm the return of American wing Brooke Bigott for the 2025-26 Super League Basketball Women’s season. She prepares to enter her second year in Riders colours after she signed from Dutch side Den Helder in the BNXT league in the 2024-25 campaign.
In Brooks’s debut season for the Riders, she played 19 games in the SLBW, averaging 7 points and 2.1 assists per game from the wing.
Having now committed to Leicester Riders for a second season, Bigott will balance her on-court duties with postgraduate studies at Loughborough University, competing in both the Super League Basketball Women’s (SLBW) and BUCS competition.
