If there were still any lingering doubts of Stephen Omwony’s potential, the Falcons Shooting guard silenced his critics with a dazzling display during which he nailed 30 points to help Western Conference edge Eastern 104-102 infront of a packed crowd at YMCA courts in Wandegeya in the 9th FUBA All-Star Game on Sunday night.

West were trailing 57-46 at the breather but Omwony’s big match temperament came to the fore and together with Tanzanian Ramathan Abdulahi and Henry Malinga saw off East’s threat.
In the All-Star ladies game, Miriam Hamala topped scored with 17 points as Team Green edged Team Black 57-53.
