Basketball League: Rivers Hoopers Advance To Last 8
Precious Oham
Defending champions Rivers Hoopers are through to the final eight of the 2024 Nigeria Premier Basketball League after a 94-50 victory over Ebun Comets on Wednesday, BSNSports.com.ng reports.
With four wins out of seven games, the 2024 BAL bronze winners made light work of the game against Comets to book their final eight spot.
Head coach Ogoh Odaudu used a 10-man rotation, with most of the starters resting for most of the game. Odaudu who is pleased to achieve their target of qualifying for the final eight, says it is not done yet.
''That was our target from the beginning. We are happy we have accomplished it, but we still have a long way to go because we are trying to get better, and we are happy we are in the final 8.''
''We will take each game as they come and win every game because there is an incentive for us for every game if we win, so we don't want to throw away money like that,'' Odaudu said.
Rivers Hoopers will play their remaining three games against Lagos Legends on Thursday, Kwara Falcons, and Hoops and Read on Friday and Saturday, respectively.
