NBL Finals | Fixture

• JKL Lady Dolphins vs UCU Lady Canons
• City Oilers vs KIU Titans

UCU Lady Canons will face off against JKL Lady Dolphins in a highly anticipated game one of the National Basketball League Finals on Wednesday at Lugogo Indoor Arena.

JKL Lady Dolphins come into the affair as the defending champions while the UCU Lady Canons brag as the record champions with eight titles onto their name.

The two sides have faced thrice in the final, and the Lady Dolphins have won twice (in 2018 and 2019) while the Lady Canons edged the former in 2022.

The Lady Canons' captain, Shakira Nanvubya, believes a good start would be of great importance in the series.

"I hope we can get a positive start in today's game because it will swing the momentum in our favour," she said.

"We have prepared well, and I believe the team is in a good shape to put up the required fight against them (JKL Lady Dophins). The coaches have done a good job, and it's left to us to execute," she added.

"They (Lady Dolphins) are a good team, and that's for sure, but we are equally good. If everyone on our team gives us the best, then we can easily win the game."

The Lady Canons will have a big assignment of dealing with Lady Canons' talented roaster bearing Jane Asinde, who has greatly improved the side.
