FIBA Africa Power Rankings:D'Tigers drop to 11th
Nigeria's D'Tigers have dropped significantly from their 8th position to 11th in the latest FIBA Africa Power Rankings.
While D'Tigers were slumping, Guinea was dancing upwards and now occupies No.3 in the continent.
Once perched comfortably at 8th, Nigeria has plummeted to 11th, suffering a painful three-spot drop after a forgettable qualifying window in Tunisia.
The D’Tigers stumbled through the round, lacking rhythm, cohesion, and the trademark bite that once made them Africa’s gold standard.
The fallout is now official, Nigeria has fallen out of the top 10 for the first time in recent memory.
At the summit, Senegal hold firm at No. 1, its dominance unshaken. Angola keeps its grip on second place, steady and ruthless.
Cameroon moves gently upward, while South Sudan, Côte d’Ivoire, Egypt, and Mali shuffle in the mid-pack as the rankings reshuffle in the wake of the qualifiers’ chaos.
But the story of the window belongs to Guinea. A team once lurking in the shadows has suddenly become the giant-slayer of Africa—efficient, fearless, and fully deserving of their meteoric rise.
Their perfect record not only stunned opponents, it blew open the narrative of who controls African basketball’s future.
For Nigeria, the alarm bells are ringing. Once feared, now faltering, D’Tigers must regroup fast or risk sinking further in the next edition.
