With only two games remaining before the playoffs, the JT Jaguars face a critical juncture after enduring a challenging stretch of three consecutive losses. For the team, the mantra is clear: relegation is not an option. With a balanced record of 10 wins and 10 losses in their 20-game campaign thus far, the team is poised to seize one of the coveted top five spots in the league. Today’s game will be against the 9-time-defending champions City Oilers at the Lugogo Indoor Arena at 7:00 pm.
“We embrace the challenge of facing the 9-time champions with honor. This will be our second encounter with them, and we are well-prepared to compete. Rest assured, the Jaguars’ family, we will be ready to show up and give it our all,” stated Kasasa Abubakah. The JT Jaguars will need to leverage the performances of star players like Kevin Moru at the 3-point lane, Ian Duncan Lubwama, and George Agasi who have been pivotal in their wins.
All-time shooter Kevin Moru recently reflected on the team’s tough loss in their previous game, emphasizing the importance of aggression moving forward. “This aggression is very key,” Moru stated, acknowledging that the team is entering this game as underdogs. He admitted feeling “sooo bad” about the loss in the game against the Rockets and stressed that there are no excuses for their performance. Despite the setback, Moru assured fans that he is not worried about his play and is determined to showcase his skills in the upcoming game.
