Leicester Riders Head Coach Rob Paternostro has been awarded the Super League Basketball Kevin Cadle Coach of the Month for October! 

Paternostro coached the team to an undefeated 5-0 record in October, seeing the Riders progress through the Super League Basketball South Group in first place. 

Leicester have the best defensive record in the competition, giving up more than 80 points on only one occasion, and have played as a cohesive unit on both ends to average the most assists and the fewest turnovers of any club in the league. 

The team won their six games by an average margin of 14.5 points, with only one game being decided within single digits.

Paternostro, a 17 time silverware winner in the top flight of British basketball, adds the first ever Super League Basketball Coach of the Month award to his extensive trophy cabinet.
