This tournament qualifies teams for the Olympics qualifiers. D'Tigress has now qualified for the Olympics qualifiers.
The winners of this tournament doesn't qualify straight out for the Olympics?

No. The top 6 teams qualify for the African pre-Olympic qualifying tournament. The top 2 teams from that tournament will then play in the world olympic qualifying tournament.

Nigeria has qualified for the African olympic qualifying tournament.

They're good, no doubt, but faint praise isn't necessary here. D'Tigers won the Afrobasket too not long ago, remember?
Ignorance is a bad thing, he does not know that D'tigers are the highest ranked team in Africa. They only lost to Tunisia in the last afrobasket cause of shoddy preparations as a result of the administrative politics.

At the moment no African team can withstand the firing power of D'tigers

This we will win it for the 2nd time in a role.


There's going to be an Olympic qualifying series, (pre and proper)FIBA has changed a lot of this recently. .

Mali is going to be a tough test no doubt, but this is a different Tigress team. The team has evolve since 2019 ranking 8th at the worldcup.
There's no team in this competition that can stand the defensive prowess of our ladies

Before opening the thread,I knew the OP would be naptu2. Good job bro...
MalI would be a very good test for D Tigress as they nearly beat us in 2017 semi final.
They tore us apart in the 4th quarter with DTigress winning by just 1 point.
Though I believe we will defeat them but will not be a stroll in the pack like the last 3 games.

Thanks bro.

Someone made the same point you made and this was D'Tigress' response.
The Malians are taller than our girls and more physical. Same with the Senegalese. It will take something special to beat these two teams.

The men are currently number 8 in the FIBA world ranking
I don't think so.
