\u201cThe break has been great, it has given us some time to put in some work, a lot of improvements from different individuals,\u201d Aciko said. \u201cI am excited to see them compete after days of hard work. It\u2019s not going to be an easy three-game series against KCCA, they are a tough team. We lost to them in both matches so we basically have to be more aggressive. I am very contented with the manpower I have.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/gugudde.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/NBL--819x1024.jpg\")
