In a thrilling display of skill and determination, Nigeria's national women's basketball team, affectionately known as D'Tigress, clinched their fourth consecutive African title at the 2023 FIBA Women's Afrobasket tournament. The D'Tigress squad showcased their prowess on the court, securing an 84-74 victory over their Senegalese counterparts in a high-stakes final.

This monumental triumph on Saturday not only cements their dominance in the realm of African basketball but also etches their names in the annals of sports history. With this win, D'Tigress becomes only the second team ever, following Senegal, to achieve the remarkable feat of clinching four consecutive titles.
