Defending men’s champions DMark Power and last year’s women’s runner-up A-1 Challenge will be all out today to close in on play-off slots when they face KK and Crane High respectively in the MTN-FUBA National Basketball League.

Power and A-1 are two wins away from reaching the post-season play-offs.
Power’s coach Andrew Baziira will use this chance to implement his rotation policy aimed at protecting his star players from fatigue. “I think we have done most of the work now and players will get deserved rests,” said Power’s Joseph Ikong who sat out of the team’s win over UCU Canons on Sunday.
A-1 as usual will look to Mavita Ali and young sister Hatima Kassim.
