City Oilers Begin BAL Quest with Decisive Win

City Oilers showcased their dominance with a commanding 77-47 victory over Fox Basketball Club in the ongoing Basketball Africa League (BAL) Elite 16 East Group Phase.

The game, held on Thursday afternoon, saw the Ugandan champions execute a masterful performance, both offensively and defensively, to secure the emphatic win.

Led by Germaine Roebuck Jr., who posted an impressive 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 steals, the Oilers capitalized on their efficient shooting and relentless rebounding to outmatch their counterparts.

Roebuck’s shooting accuracy (53.85% from the field) and composure at the free-throw line proved pivotal in building an unassailable lead.

Israel Oyoro Otobo also delivered a standout performance, contributing 13 points and grabbing 8 rebounds. His dominance in the paint was complemented by Fayed Baale’s steady scoring, who chipped in 9 points, 3 rebounds, and a steal in his 18 minutes on the court.

The Oilers were clinical on the boards, out-rebounding Fox Basketball Club 52-37. Their ability to convert second-chance opportunities and limit their turnovers (10 compared to Fox’s 14) was key to their offensive rhythm. Despite Titus Odeke failing to score in the game, his 6 rebounds and defensive hustle added value to the Oilers’ efforts.

Fox Basketball Club struggled to find their footing offensively, with their leading scorers stifled by City Oilers’ disciplined defense. Their field goal shooting percentage of just 28% (19/68) underlined their woes, as they failed to overcome the Oilers’ superior physicality and tactical execution.

The win propels City Oilers to the top of the group standings and will face Matero Magic next on Friday afternoon.
