D’Tigress fall to Los Angeles Sparks

Nigeria’s women’s national team, D’Tigress, suffered a defeat against the Los Angeles Sparks in a historic preseason friendly.

The Sparks controlled the game and secured an 89–63 victory, despite the effort and intensity shown by the Nigerian side.

Facing a more experienced and physically dominant WNBA team, D’Tigress had promising moments but struggled to match their opponent’s offensive firepower.

The game represents a valuable step in Nigeria’s preparation, as they continue to face top-level opposition ahead of major international competitions.
