The win marks their first victory of the tournament after falling short in their previous encounters against Angola and Tanzania.

Determined to bounce back from their earlier setbacks, the Golden Arrows charged onto the court with renewed resolve. Their relentless pursuit paid off in the first half, where they established a commanding 16-9 lead over Kenya.

Maintaining their momentum, they continued to dominate the second half, ultimately securing a well-deserved 32-23 victory.

“It is unfortunate that they lost their previous games, but they also fought well in those games,” said Solomon Yola, the assistant coach for the Nigerian team.
