The national men’s basketball league continues this evening when former champions Cercle Sportif de Kigali (CSK) host Kimisagara-based 30-Plus at Cercle Sportif de Kigali court in Rugunga.

The 2011 league champions, CSK is in fifth position with seven points after winning three and losing one of the four games they have played so far, while 30-Plus have one win in five games and they are in 7th position in the 11-team league table.

Last year, 30-Plus finished bottom of the league, while CSK finished in fourth position, behind Espoir, Rusizi and KBC.

The game between CSK and 30-Plus was supposed to be played on Saturday, but it had to be shifted to Friday as both teams have many of their players taking part in the inter-university tournament which climaxes this weekend. The league will continue on Saturday as University of Rwanda College of Education (UR-CE) takes on Rusizi at the National Paralympics Committee gymnasium, starting at 10am.

That game will be followed by the encounter between Espoir against new entrants Gisenyi BBC at the same venue, beginning at 12pm. Gisenyi have one win in four games and stand in 9th position with five points.

Unbeaten Espoir have won six out of six but are second on the league table with 12 points, one behind APR, who have played a game more and have already lost to the defending champions.
