    D’Tigress Bow out of Olympics After 74-88 Loss to U.S

    D’Tigress, Nigeria’s senior women basketball team, on Wednesday in Paris ended their impressive run at the 2024 Olympic Games on a losing note.

    The Nigerian side, who have already made history as Africa’s first side either make or female to go beyond the group phase of the Olympic competition lost 74-88 to the U.S.

    They stood toe-to-toe with the Americans in the opening minutes, only to soon start to fall behind as their opponents came out more forcefully.

    The News Agency reports that the quarter-final game at the Berry Arena saw the Nigerian side losing 17-26, 16-26, 15-24 in the first three quarters.

    By the time they resurged to win 26-12 in the fourth and final quarter, it was a little bit late in the day. #D’Tigress Bow out of Olympics After 74-88 Loss to U.S
