defeating them 70-61 in the ongoing Elite 16 Road to BAL 2025 qualifiers in Kenya.
The match, held earlier on Friday, marked Urunani’s second consecutive win in the
tournament. Earlier on Thursday, the Burundian team dominated Zambia’s Matero Magic
with a resounding 80-34 victory.
Urunani BBC is competing in a challenging group alongside Fox BBC (South Sudan), City
Oilers (Uganda), and Matero Magic (Zambia). Their next encounter is scheduled for Sunday,
December 1, 2024, at 3:00 PM (Burundi time), where they will face off against Uganda’s City

The Elite 16 qualifiers serve as a gateway to the Basketball Africa League (BAL) 2025, with
the final tournament set to take place in South Africa in April 2025. Urunani BBC’s
impressive performance so far positions them as strong contenders for the prestigious league.
