River Lions set for semi-final game Friday night

  • The Niagara River Lions take on the Fraser Valley Bandits at 7 p.m. Friday in the CEBL semi-final game.
  • The game, being played in Edmonton, will be broadcasted live at 7:00 p.m. ET on CBC TV, CEBL+ and CBC Gem. 
  • Many of the River Lions players have been unable to practice this week as a positive COVID-19 test result forced many players into self-isolation.
  • However, the River Lions got a boost with the return of former Duke Blue Devil Javin DeLaurier, who was playing in the NBA Summer League.
  • The championship game will take place Sunday at 4 p.m. ET.
