In an interesting development, veteran power forward Robert Youngblood has left the Milton Keynes Lions and an alternative veteran has been drafted in. 6'6'' Trinadadian/British naturalised forward Shawn Myers joins the Lions after a number of seasons at the Cheshire Jets.
Controversy surrounds this signing, but the Lions have indicated that Youngblood's leaving was on "mutual consent". I'd be surprised if the 6'7'' power forward doesn't reappear either in the BBL or EBL.
Myers is a former BBL All-star, and whilst the Lions have let go the oldest player in the league (Youngblood, 41) they have replaced him with a player 3 months younger!
