Evelyne Nakiyingi’s missed three-pointer with six seconds left marked the last shot attempt for JKL, sealing the victory for Equity Bank.

Equity’s Maryann Nyagaki Wanjiku also contributed with a key layup and a vital defensive play down the stretch. In one of the pivotal moments, she blocked an attempt by Hope Akello in the final two minutes, stifling JKL’s momentum and securing the narrow lead.

Additionally, Nakiyingi’s three-pointer earlier in the quarter had briefly put JKL back within striking distance, but repeated turnovers and missed shots allowed Equity to hold on.

Both teams showed resilience, with JKL making several attempts to narrow Equity’s lead through three-pointers and fast breaks, but ultimately falling short.
