Six-time and reigning Afrobasket champions Dtigress have moved up 7 places from 18th to 11th in the world with a total of 528.9 points based on the latest rankings released by FIBA which was released on Wednesday.
This comes off the back of their dominance at the Women’s AfroBasket in Kigali last month where they won the Afrobasket title for a 4th consecutive time.
The Nigerian ladies defeated Senegal 84 – 74 to remain the best team on the African continent and also secure qualification for the Olympics qualifier.
According to the new ranking, the top 10 in the world include the United States of America, China, Australia, Spain, Canada, Belgium, France, Brazil, Japan and Serbia.
