Regular Season Round 11: Tigers - Patriots 92-82

Date: April 16, 2025
We cannot really consider it an upset in the game between close teams in Kigali where 3rd placed Patriots (8-4) were defeated by fourth ranked Tigers (8-5) 92-82 on Wednesday. Tigers looked well-organized offensively handing out 23 assists. The best player for the winners was American swingman David Nickelberry (201-1998, college: Buffalo) who had a double-double by scoring 30 points and 10 rebounds. DR Congolese center Pitchou Kambuyi (208-1988) chipped in a double-double by scoring 13 points and 15 rebounds. Tigers' coach Henry Mwinuka used an eleven-player rotation and allowed the starting five to get some rest. American point guard Elliott Cole (180-1994, college: Charleston) produced 29 points and 6 assists (was perfect 7-for-7 from the free throw line) and international Steven Hagumintwari (198-1993) added 21 points and 10 rebounds respectively for the guests. Five Tigers and four Patriots players scored in double figures. The victory was the fifth consecutive win for Tigers. They maintain fourth place with 8-5 record. Loser Patriots keep the third position with four games lost.
