Despite the poor showing in the last FIBA World Cup qualifying window where they posted a 1-3 result, Nigeria’s D’Tigers will a dangerous side come the World Cup proper according Ivory Coast Head Coach Paolo Povia.
The Italian predicts that Africa will have a good outing in China and particularly expects Nigeria to name the strongest roster from Africa.
Nigeria is still a really good team regardless of the out from the last World Cup qualifying window. Of course I think for the World Cup they’ll be a different team with a lot of good players.
They can be really dangerous team for any opponent and I think the same about other four African teams. Personally, I feel this world cup can be nice because there’ll be a lot of surprises,’ the Ivory Coast Head Coach told brila.net
