Basketball Africa League: Rivers Hoopers set for supremacy battle against AS Douanes in Kigali

Nigeria’s representatives at the 2024 Basketball Africa League (BAL), Rivers Hoopers, will be involved in a supremacy battle against AS Douanes of Senegal in one of the four seeding games in the playoffs in Kigali next week.

The two teams played against each other twice in the Sahara Conference held last week in Dakar, with each winning one of the ties.

Unlike previous formats where teams advanced straight to the knockout stage (quarterfinals), teams have been paired based on their performance across all three conferences in this season’s playoffs.
