Following consultation with the BBL, the four BBL Cup Semi-Finalists have come to an agreement to amend the format for the BBL Cup Semi-Finals due to fixture pressures due to COVID-19 implications.
The changes are:
- Moving from two-legs to single-leg.
- Playing both games in one central venue
- Playing both games on the same day
Therefore the BBL Cup Semi-Finals have been agreed as follows:
Date: Tuesday 12 January 2021
Venue: National Basketball Performance Centre, Manchester
Game 1: Leicester Riders v Newcastle Eagles – 5:00pm
Game 2: London Lions v Manchester Giants – 8:00pm
Both games will be broadcast live via BBL Player.
