“Notably, D’Tigress demonstrated exceptional performance at the Paris Olympics, defeating highly-ranked FIBA teams to secure a spot in the quarterfinals, thereby making history for Africa and Nigeria. Today, August 7th, D’Tigress will face Team USA in the quarterfinals.

“I extend my best wishes for their success in the game. Let us all send the best of wishes and stay rooting for them.”
