#10 Justin Robinson - After an impressive six year basketball career across Europe, which included playing for GB at Eurobasket 2013, London Lions Head Coach Vince Macaulay persuaded the point guard to return home and play for Lions in the summer of 2017. The back-to-back league MVP led his side to the BBL League and Cup double last season.
