D’Tigers took to social media to pay tribute to late Sound Sultan after their big win against USA and Argentina in their preparation for the Tokyo Olympics 2020.
“We dedicate the victories against US & Argentina to late Olanrewaju Fasasi (@Soundsultan). You saw this day coming when Nigeria would become a dominant force in global basketball. Ironically, the day we won against @usabasketball, that was when you gave up the ghost. RIP,” NBBF said on social media.
D’Tigers defeated 4th ranked Argentina with a dominating 94-71 scoreline in Las Vegas on Monday. This comes a day after they pulled off a shocker against world best team USA.
