Did any of you make any big wins from this? Personally I just got started during lockdown last year and it's just a hobby, nothing more, but during quarantine, it was pretty handy when I won something, though it also made me realize that I should be careful with where I bet and how much I bet. Found a mobile app after reading a review here https://bestbet.ng/mobile-app-for-betting-nigeria/ and since then I've been hooked, but not in a bad way as in addicted, just really enjoying some free time on this app.

She hasn't played for US team before....she doesn't need a switch like it's done with FIFA,unless I'm wrong..

I don't think she would mind playing for us.. unless she wants to wait for US or doesn't fancy playing at the Olympics

What is Emeka Okafor doing on the list? He is too old for the Squad. Some of the names I am seeing here make me laugh. It is almost a month to dunk off time shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked at the Olympics, please. Coach Brown should narrow his list to the best players in this list. Cheers.

My thoughts too. At this stage of preparations, the provisional rooster should be down to, say, 24/25 players. 49 is just too many players fighting for a spot with about 4.5 weeks left

I was referring to this doc.

http://www.fiba.basketball/downloads/v3_expe/agen/docs/3-ELIGIBILITY-NATIONAL-STATUS-of-%20PLAYERS.pdf]

Anyway, I’ve checked her profile and she played in the 2020 FIBA pre-Olympic qualifying tournament ..

.....left to me,we do not need to 2 okafors,also the former golden state big man is not needed...i feel the coach is just waisting valuable time. why do u bring a 49 man squad now.A few weeks to the olympics
Re: Nigeria Basketball Thread! by carbonado(m): 12:18am On Jun 23, 2021
I am not too sure of some players current form,however, if i had to pick a list, my list will go like this :-
- Ike Ireogbu.
- Monte Morris.
- Ben Uzor.
-Josh Okogie.
- Gabe Vincent.
- Nwamu.
- OG Anunoby.
- Jordan Nwora.
- Al-Farook Aminu.
- Ike Diogu.
- Chimeze Metu.
- Mike Eric.
There goes my list.

. Obi Emegano should replace Ike Nwamu on your list. Keith Omoeirah should replace Ben Uzoh or Metu. Emegano and Omoeirah are very intelligent players. Egekezie can also make this Olympic squad.

. You are right. Egekezie is a good player. He will make the team to the Afro basket. I think Obi Emegano can play at the Olympics. Omoeirah also.

They hardly play.

I know he was injured while with the magic, but he recovered later and played some games before being traded to the bulls. I barely saw his name on the injury list..

TBH, of all the NBA boys on the list, only Anunoby and to some extent,Okogie are starters at their respective teams.. The rest are mostly bench players...
