Last home game of 2016 for Sheffield Sharks see them beat Cheshire Phoenix

In a roller coaster 2016 which saw them play the under-dog to win the BBL play-off final in May and revamp the team several times before and since, the Sheffield Sharks rounded off 2016 in fine style as they ran out 82-79 winners in a buzzer-beater game against Cheshire Phoenix at the EIS, Sheffield.

In an end-to-end contest, Sharks biggest lead of game was 10 points at 77-67.  The game then swung as Cheshire posted 12 without reply to lead 79-77.  Sharks ended 5-0, crucially with a late 3-pointer from Colin Sing to win 82-79.
