After suffering defeat in their opening game against Egypt, Nigeria’s Junior Tigers returned to winning ways on Saturday afternoon.

They were able to redeem their battered image when they face Angola on Saturday and secured their first win in the competition.
The former Champions defeated Angola 70-65 and revived their dwindling hopes in the competition.
