“One Guyana” Basketball League 2024: “We are gonna come out 110%” – Coach Adrian Hooper

The Stabroek Eagles have scored an exciting win to level the “One Guyana” Basketball League National Final Series against the Ravens last Saturday, and will attempt to capture the “One Guyana” Basketball League title on Saturday, March 23rd 2024.
With national player Travis Belgrave leading the attack, Stabroek Eagles plundered the defence of the Ravens at the National Gymnasium last Saturday, March 9, leaving the scoreline reading 67-59 in the Eagles’ favour.
In a comment invited by Guyana Times Sport, Head Coach of Stabroek Eagles, Adrian Hooper, divulged the adjustments made on the defensive end to maintain their lead. He said, “The adjustment that we made was on the defensive end and the more defense we played, thus making it harder for them to score on our end. We were just forcing (them to take) some loose shots, but we were there all the time in the lead, and we tried to maintain the lead and we got this victory”.
Hooper explained that a few adjustments had to be made, and he is confident his team would uplift the trophy. He said, “Some more adjustments are needed. I mean, we made them tonight, but we got work to do, and I’m certainly 100% sure that we are gonna win this tournament. The team, we already figured them out, and they know we figured them out too; so, the only thing left for us to do is for us to play our game all over.
“Winning this game is the confidence that we needed, and the third game is only gonna get better, and it’s the last game of the tournament and we have nothing to lose and everything to win; so, we are gonna come out 110% and get this victory.”
A million dollars are at stake, the “One Guyana” Basketball League will come to an end at the National Gymnasium after months of basketball action, and the Stabroek Eagles will be looking to dominate the action against the Ravens in the final game. (Omar McKenzie)
