NBL Fixtures | Wednesday, May 15

• Miracle Ravens vs Magic Stormers - 7pm
• KCCA Panthers vs Nam Blazers - 9pm

KCCA Panthers will take on top-of-the-table Namuwongo Blazers tonight in the National Basketball League at YMCA in Wandegeya.

Panthers (9-5) will be looking to upset Blazers (12-3) having lost the first-round fixture by 20 points (84-64) at Abja Park, the home of the Blazers.

KCCA come into the game on the back of a one-point win over Power while Namuwongo edged Ndejje Angels in their last out and coach Stephen Nyeko will be hoping for a better defensive effort from the team. Blazers were also pushed to the limit in the game against JT Jaguars they edged 62-60.

In the women's division, Miracle Ravens will be looking to bounce back from recent disappointing performances when they face Magic Stormers.

Ravens have struggled in the second round, winning just two out of their five games and losing their last two fixtures but against Stormers, a team they beat in the first round of the season, Arnold Katabi will fancy his charges' chances.

However, the Stormers have since strengthened their squad, notably adding star forward Zainah Lokwameri during the mid-season transfer window.

And the Stormers have shown significant improvement, winning two of their three games in the second round. They triumphed over the UPDF Lady Tomahawks and Kampala University but couldn't match the power JKL Lady Dolphins.
