Liverpool Basketball rout Caledonia Gladiators by 26 behind Olutomiwa Sulaiman's 23
Liverpool Basketball dismantled Caledonia Gladiators 119–93, a 26-point rout that required barely any second-half resistance. The hosts controlled the tempo from the opening quarter, outscored their visitors 38–21 in the first, and never looked back. Caledonia briefly threatened early in the second, rattling off a 12-0 run midway through the quarter to cut the deficit to single figures at 38–31. It proved nothing more than a flicker. Liverpool's lead stretched to 12 by half-time (61–49) and grew methodically thereafter — a 27–21 third quarter put them up 18 heading into the fourth, where they eventually peaked at a 26-point cushion with just over four minutes remaining. Olutomiwa Sulaiman led the scoring with clinical efficiency: 23 points on 8-of-10 shooting, adding four rebounds. Patrick Robinson contributed 22 points, seven rebounds and six assists on solid 7-of-14 from the floor, whilst Tevin Olison drilled five three-pointers in a 15-point haul. For Caledonia, Al-Amir Dawes managed 20 points and eight rebounds, and Christian Keeling shot well with 18 on 8-of-13, but neither could spark any late-game comeback worth mentioning. The result lifts Liverpool to 4–4 in the Super League regular season, whilst Caledonia slip to 3–4. Liverpool host B. Braun Sheffield Sharks on Sunday 15 November.
