It’s been an MTN-Fuba League season to forget for Nkumba Marines as the two-time champions’ play-off hopes were extinguished even before they could harbour a detailed plan.
They cannot cry over spilt milk though as ending on a high is good for their morale. That relatively easy final bend starts this evening when Nkumba face postseason-bound Mountain Dew Falcons at YMCA court, Wandegeya.
St. Michael and KCC Lions are still to come for Nkumba making this their last ‘big shot’ to cause a major upset.
Coach Timothy Odeke’s team fluctuate from brilliance as shown in their victory over Kyambogo Warriors to becoming abysmal as their losses to Ndejje University Angels and Miracle Eagles have manifested.

“Of course at the start of the season, our target was the play-offs though injuries didn’t help our situation,” Odeke noted without offering major remedies.
Nonetheless, he will look back to season when forwards Philip Wakimwero and Alex Mugoya plus guard Ladislas Ikungura have thrilled crowds.
In Falcons, they face a side coming off an easy 131-64 triumph over St. Michael.
