At YMCA:
Magic Stormers Vs Gladiators 6:30pm
Our Saviour Vs StarTimes Falcons 8:30pm
StarTimes Falcons is the only unbeaten side in the National
Basketball League. They have swept through their first six fixtures
dispatching defending champions City Oilers in the process.
The record champions’ next apponents are league freshers, Our Saviour
– a side with nearly half the team former Falcon’s players.
Kenyan duo of Ariel Okall and Joseph Ouma along with Ceasar Kizito
and Derrick Mbusi have solidified Falcons (6-0) this season. Along with
the core of Steven Omony, Peter Elungant and Jonah Mukwaba as well as
vets Isaac Afidra and David Kiberu, Falcons have too much for Our
Saviour.
Shooting guard, Syrus Kiviiri who poured season high 30 points on
Diamonds in the last game is doubtful but hopeful he will be able to
face his former side.
Despite having a good roster, Our Saviour’s only wins of the season
have come against Diamonds and Charging Rhinos while losing to Ndejje,
Power, UCU and KIU. Sunday Okot and John Otto have failed to get David
Marial scoring.
Our Saviour (2-4) will look to forward, James Deng as they try to get a win off a big side.
Meanwhile, in the women's division, Gladiators (0-5) will face Magic
Stormers. Stormers (2-3) who are play off second round regulars will be
hoping to add a win against the struggling promoted side that just cant
win a game.
