On July 8, 2012, the D’Tigers etched their name in the annals of Nigerian sports history. By securing qualification for the London 2012 Olympic Games, they became the first Nigerian men’s basketball team to compete on the global Olympic stage. It was more than just a win - it was a statement that Nigerian basketball had truly arrived. That day marked a major shift - not only for basketball but for Nigerian sports as a whole - proving that with vision, support, and hard work, anything is possible. Let’s continue to celebrate and support our national teams as they make us proud on the world stage. #dtigers #nigeriabasketball #olympicqualification #memorableday #anfassc #proudlynigerian #sportsexcellence #teamnigeria #basketballlegacy #historymakers #nigerianspirit #believeinnigeria
