Patriots Vs Espoir 5pm

Patriots basketball club head coach Henry Mwinuka has warned his players to avoid taking Espoir lightly when the pair square off Sunday at STECOL basketball court.

Espoir’s five-game unbeaten run came to an end on Friday after spirited APR stunned them 80-35 but Mwinuka called on his men to remain cautious about the threat the club may pose ahead of Sunday’s game.

"We should not underestimate the opponent, Espoir is a tough side to play against, so we need to be careful,” the Tanzanian told Times Sport.

Patriots beat IPRC-Kigali 98-40 and Mwinuka is confident that, despite a slow start to the season, his side has regained its form with which they can go on to win the league.

Elsewhere, United Generation Basketball (UGB) play IPRC-Musanze at the same venue at 1pm.
