The team emerged champion of the tournament for the first time ever as they create a record for the Nation.
The game started on a low-key note for the Nigerian team when the first quarter ends 13 – 10 in favour of the Angolans, the game changed when Olumide Oyedeji was substituted for Chamberlain Oguchi after he was roughly tackled.
Third Quarter ended 36 – 51 as the Angolans appeared demoralized. Fourth quarter ended 65 – 74 which dethroned the Angolans as Nigeria took over the basketball throne in Africa.
Nigerian guard, Chamberlain Oguchi was awarded the tournament MVP and best 3 Point shooter, while Minnesota Timberwolves and Senegal’s rebound machine Gorgui Dieng won the best Rebounder and Scoring titles.
Oguchi and Al-Farouq Aminu made the Tourney’s best team also.
Congrats to the boys.
