The London Lightning have been eliminated from the NBL playoffs after a 102-92 loss to the Brampton A's Saturday night.

After forcing the A's into Game 5, the Lightning weren't able to capitalize and trailed behind Brampton at the end of each quarter.

“We dug ourselves in a hole and it was really tough for us to climb out,” says Lightning Head Coach Carlos Knox in a media release. “They outplayed us from a number of different angles and we had a few issues down the stretch."

The Lightning are thanking their fans for their support throughout the season.
