Frustrating 115-116 loss to Morocco: (77889)
It came down to details, but as I thought, the Moroccan team is stronger.
We led for most of the game and still had a 4-point lead with a minute to go, but we couldn't secure the win.
Despite our good shooting ability (.522), we were dominated on the rebound, and the Moroccans were also very good at 3-point shooting (9-19).

Bagindawo Lenshina had a historic evening by breaking the national team record for most assists in one game with 18, without losing a single ball!

Next Monday, we'll meet Algeria (1W-1L).

Tonight, we beat Algeria 104-100: (77895)
A very close game in which the shooting ability (.482) and a good assists/turnovers ratio (29/6) made the difference.
MOTM: Shafilshuna Machemko, who scored 36 points (14-24) in 33 minutes.
As usual, Bagindawo Lenshina delighted his teammates with 13 assists.
Next opponent: Nigeria.

I forgot to mention that Algeria is hosting the tournament and therefore has home court advantage.

Sorry for the delay. I've been very busy over the last few days.
Unfortunately, we lost the last 2 matches.

The loss against Nigeria is a little frustrating: (77900)
The one against Egypt, the tournament favorite, is no surprise: (77903)
Our opponents played with a superior attitude, which proves that we are taken seriously.

MOTM vs. Nigeria: Muileki Simelaine with 30 points (13-19) and 12 rebounds in 40 minutes.
MOTM vs. Egypt: Stephen Buffery with 45 points (17-39) in 38 minutes.

This should not affect our participation in the 2nd round, but it will be more difficult to qualify for the semi-finals.

Tonight we beat Senegal 176-140! (77908)
An incredible score but it's All-Star Game week! :D

All the stats are crazy.
69% shooting accuracy.
30-31 on free throws.
47 assists.
But also 28 turnovers.
Senegal's defensive choice (full court press) had a lot to do with it.

2 MOTMs tonight:
Muileki Simelaine who scored 37 points (16-18!) and grabbed 13 rebounds in 29 minutes.
Bagindawo Lenshina who broke his own national team record with 20 assists!

We lost the game to Morocco 102-119: (78533)
MOTM: Ngwazi Zonke with 33 points (11-21), 8 rebounds and 4 assists.

Al Maghrib put more into this game than South Africa.

I preferred to save the enthusiasm for the upcoming games.

Nigeria and Algeria also lost tonight. No change in the rankings.
