China Autumn Tour: D’Tigers Defeat USA  National Team

 Nigeria Senior Male Basketball team D’Tigers Wednesday in China defeated the USA national basketball team 75-70 in the ongoing Autumn tournament holding in China.

 It would be recalled that D’Tigers had defeated USA national team in a preparatory game prior to the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games. It was a feat never achieved by any African country in the history of the game. 

The invitational tournament which started  September 30 and ends October 20, is being played across different cities in China.

The Nigeria national basketball team would be moving to another city Thursday, in continuation of its games in the tournament.
