Tough loss to Sana’a this week. Started off with 4 guys and fought a great first half but the second half was just too much to handle for them. Next week they take on Mombasa again who they were able to push a little last time around. They’re going to need an almost perfect game to pull this one off.

Impressive first half for this squad really pushing Mombasa and hanging in with them but they let up in the second half and it got out of hand from there. Next week they take on a Sana’a squad that’s coming off their second straight win and is hungry for a third. If they can just play the way they played that first half this week on a regular basis they should be able to win more games.

Good all-around game for this squad grinding through to get their first win of the season. They need to get more offense flowing though as they currently rank 15th in points per game. They play a tough Mombasa squad next week and they’re going to need to show up on offense if they want any chance of winning this game.

Really tough matchup against Mecca this week. Definitely not the start that they wanted but they can bounce back next week with a nice matchup against Cairo. They need more offensive productivity out of their guys or this team won’t be going anywhere anytime soon.

Another new team to the league. A mix of players from different teams, some guards and big men. On paper, individually, some of the players on this team have been able to succeed in this league. How they bring it all together and work throughout the season is a mystery that will be discovered come Week 1. They have to play some of the powerhouses in this league but maybe they can bring it together and get a run going into the playoffs.
