Uganda: Canons Eye Ninth Straight Victory
UCU Canons, riding on their cohesiveness build over a couple of years, are well placed to win the National Basketball League for the first time.
The side that has won all their eight games in the Airtel sponsored league, hope to go a step better against Charging Rhinos, who are in eighth position.
The match is due at YMCA court, Wandegeya today.
UCU strengthened their team with the recruitment of Syrus Kiviiri before the new season rolled off.
The move has paid off as Kiviiri's combination with Sudi Ulanga has elevated them to the level of unstoppable shooters.
The two are the league's best partners now and greatly account for the team's unbeaten run.
Elsewhere, in the other game, last year's finalists and currently sixth placed positioned Galaxy Falcons will take on Nkumba Marines in ninth place. The game will also be held at the YMCA courts.
