Revenge will be topmost in the minds of Nigeriaâs Senior menâs basketball team, DâTigers as they open their Tokyo 2020 campaign against Australia this morning at the Saitama Super Arena.
The Aussies who Nigeria is playing today in Group B were the only team that defeated DâTigers 108-69 in their pre-Olympics preparation. They put a damp on the victories Nigeria recorded against world number one and four USA and Argentina penultimate week in Las Vegas, USA.
DâTigers, in that 39-point loss to the Boomers, were a far cry from the team that had beaten the top-ranked United States and Argentina a few days earlier in Las Vegas, but there were suggestions that Mike Brownâs side took their feet off the pedal against the Aussies, possibly with an eye on Sundayâs clash.
The goal is gold : Boomers on cusp of history
